BURKART, Mara. La Guerra de Malvinas según las Caricaturas de Hermenegildo Sábat en Clarín. Cuad. Cent. Estud. Diseñ. Comun., Ensayos [online]. 2019, n.74, pp.17-32. ISSN 1853-3523.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18682/cdc.vi74.1081.

The aim of this work is to analyze the caricatures created by Hermenegildo Sábat for Clarin newspaper, during the Malvinas/Falklands conflict caused by the Argentine military dictatorship on April 1982 that ended in a clamorous defeat. Conceived in its modern sense, caricatures are a powerful and effective visual instrument to continue political conflicts by symbolic means. Since then, what happened with the caricatures during the Malvinas/Falklands war? Did they became a weapon of the nationalistic cause or were able to offer new and critical interpretations about the conflict? Our hypothesis is that Sábat’s caricatures acknowledge the closure of the public space during the so-called “recuperation” and the war itself, and suggests that they could set up a critical crank.

Palabras clave : Malvinas/Falklands War; caricature; Hermenegildo Sábat.
