AMADO SILVERO, Florencia. Aesthetics through peronism and anti-peronism: An approach to the work of the Eva Perón Foundation (1948-1952). An. Inst. Arte Am. Investig. Estét. Mario J. Buschiazzo [online]. 2021, vol.51, n.1, pp.1-14. ISSN 2362-2024.

On October 17, 1945, the rules of the Argentine politics game changed forever. Since the arrival of Juan Domingo Perón to the presidency, and Eva Duarte to the field of social action, most of argentine society gets divided, grouping behind two political flags: peronism and anti-peronism. Both groups, diverse, heterogeneous and even contradictory, will make up the two faces of society. The Eva Perón Foundation and its Director entered into the scene at the end of 1948, leaving charity behind to give way to integral social justice. Its aesthetic component, headed by the neocolonial, provokes an architectural dialogue not without friction, with its otherness: the vestiges of the Charity Society and a combative anti-peronism.

Keywords : Eva Perón; aesthetics; neocolonial; Buenos Aires; second half of XXth Century.
