Resumen:
The articulation of political action and art practices has a long history in Argentina, dating at least as far back as the late nineteenth century. Far from unproblematic and peaceful, this combination has been marked by tensions, discrepancies, utopic propositions and secret alliances. Some of these episodes have been repeatedly revisited in the last few years, particularly the confluence of avant-garde and political radicalization that generated the frenzied 1968 Itinerary, and culminated in the collective work Tucumán Arde.This overview focuses on ?artistic activism?, to use the term coined by the German Dadaists for their own practices, as developed in Argentina since the 1980s, concentrating on recent history and the actual situation of some of the most active groups.
