This study aims to reflect on the role Agustín Espinosa played in the vindication of both Cubism and the figure of Pablo Ruiz Picasso during the first third of the Spanish 20th century. To this end, it starts from a philological and historiographical analysis of Tenerife Gaceta de Arte, vehicle of dissemination of the artistic and cultural renewal in Spain. In this sense, the Picassian discourse of the Tenerife magazine is based on the Parisian surrealist group, headed by André Breton, as well as on a series of literary precedents present in the Canary Islands in the 1920s. When deepening into Espinosa’s work, it is possible to formulate new relational approaches between the literary images of the Canary poet and the Cubist dynamics, together with the defence of the movement.

Haitian painter Hector Hyppolite (born: c.1894 (uncertain) in Saint Marc, Haiti; died: 1948 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti) is best known for his inventive depictions of Haitian religious practices called voodoo (vodou in Haitian Creole), and his portraits of spirits or loa. Hyppolite was one of Haiti’s most celebrated artists from the mid-20th century onwards, a period that has been termed a renaissance for Haitian art. Hyppolite joined the Centre d’Art, a studio and exhibition space for artists in Port-au-Prince, Haiti in 1945. In the three years before his sudden death in 1948 his work was prodigious, consisting of hundreds of paintings, exhibited in Haiti and abroad during his lifetime. Soon after Hyppolite delivered his first paintings to the Centre d’Art, André Breton bought several, displayed them in Paris, and claimed Haitian painting for Surrealism. Hyppolite’s prominence during the early days of the Centre d’Art, founded in 1944, made him a leading figure in Haiti’s so-called naïve art movement. Hector Hyppolite’s eccentric persona fuelled his popularity with foreign audiences. Collectors and critics were as fascinated by Hyppolite’s polemic lifestyle as much as by his paintings. Hyppolite clearly understood that myth-making is part of the modern artist’s toolkit. His untimely death in 1948, as his reputation as an artist was growing, left many questions about his life unanswered.

The article discusses selected literary and artistic discoveries of Mallarmé’s aesthetics from the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 21st century. Mallarmé, whom Verlaine included in the circle of “poètes maudit” and who was considered a master of decadence thanks to Huysmans’s novel Against Nature, was announced a surrealist in Surrealism Manifesto by André Breton and his name appeared in the writing of Valéry and other 20th-century poets and writers. The Cubists were delighted with “spatialization” of poetry in A Roll of the Dice. In addition, constant discovering of the poet by the composers – from Debussy and Ravel, through Boulez, to the contemporary artists such as Marc-André Dalbavie or Jean-Luc Hervé cannot be overlooked.

Este artigo traz uma leitura interdisciplinar de Nadja, romance escrito por André Breton em 1928, a partir das concepções de realidade propostas pelos surrealistas e pela psicanálise. No surrealismo, através da critica ao realismo, surge o conceito de surreal, com o qual artistas passaram a se exprimir em produções artísticas e em uma conduta particular de vida no pós-guerra. Na psicanálise, Freud foi levado a superar a dicotomia entre interno/externo, assim como entre normal/patológico, implicando, com isso, uma nova concepção de realidade, que posteriormente foi reformulada por Lacan sob o conceito de real. Esta leitura traz como decorrência a denúncia ao conformismo e a superação das falsas dicotomias, ensejando, tanto com a psicanálise quanto com o surrealismo, uma transformação na práxis do sujeito.

Durante a segunda guerra mundial, Claude Lévi-Strauss e André Breton se encontraram no navio que os conduzia a Nova York. Viviam a mesma experiência de intelectuais expatriados. Tristes Trópicos (1955) pode ser lido como o resultado de trocas com Breton e outros escritores, em que a forma e a contribuição literárias são onipresentes afin de avaliar a originalidade e as contribuições do próprio texto antropológico. Nesta obra, Lévi-Strauss se interroga especificamente sobre todas as formas de relato do “Além” e sobre as condições do conhecimento científico das sociedades humanas. A partir de seus primeiros artigos até Antropologia estrutural (1958), Lévi-Strauss desenvolve algumas definições interessantes da atividade criadora em relação aos mitos. Especularmente, pode-se notar a importância do encontro do etnólogo com André Breton e a visão da arte que ele estava desenvolvendo: um tipo de arte cuja dimensão social estava afirmada com maior intensidade. Estando em contato com a etnologia e Claude Lévi-Strauss, André Breton concebe e desenvolve sua necessidade de criação de um mito contemporâneo que denominará ‘os grandes transparentes’. Em 1955 o etnólogo propõe um questionário para a preparação de L’Art magique. Por meio da correspondência entre o poeta e o etnólogo, podemos apreciar as discussões e o que alimentou suas concepções pessoais.
