Abstract

BELEJ, Cecilia. Una exposición permanente: Políticas de la imagen en los edificios públicos a través de sus murales en la década de 1930. Travesía (San Miguel de Tucumán) [online]. 2014, vol.16, n.1, pp.29-49. ISSN 2314-2707.

The aim of this article is to analyse the uses of mural decoration in the buildings built by the Dirección General de Arquitectura from the Ministry of Public Works of Argentina in the 1930s. During this period, the Ministry built its own offices and those of the Ministry of Finance; both were decorated with images that will be examined. Moreover, we will examine the proposal of the artists who addressed the State to offer mural painting as a means to communicate ideas to a broader public, through images.

Keywords : Public Works Ministry; Muralism; Alfredo Guido; Representations.
