MARTINEZ NESPRAL, Fernando. De cada pueblo un paisano. From the spanish village of Montjuic to the Children Republic of Gonnet: Two fanciful cities serving two political projects. An. Inst. Arte Am. Investig. Estét. Mario J. Buschiazzo [online]. 2014, vol.44, n.1, pp.77-90. ISSN 2362-2024.

In the first half of the twentieth century, two building complexes for exhibition, education and entertainment were opened in Spain and Argentina and have in common the idea of representing the diversity of cultures, regional and international. Both created a kind of architectural Frankenstein where we can find together many different architectural styles. We are talking about the Spanish Village of 1929 in Montjuic, Barcelona and the Children Republic in Gonnet, La Plata, 1951. Despite of the geographical, temporal and stylistic distance, both case studies have in common the fact of being architectural and political projects of the government that built them. The purpose of this paper is comparing both cases, to analyze the political uses of this type of heterotopic architectures that build fantasy stages.
