Under the Sign of Kandinsky. On Pure Becoming in the Poetics of the Maldonado Bailey Brothers

The work of Tomás Maldonado (1922), painter and designer, and Edgar Bayley (1919-1990), poet, share the features of simplicity, sobriety, and accuracy. But their blood relation is not enough to explain that “family air” that binds their productions. Their different artistic disciplines blurs the com...

description The work of Tomás Maldonado (1922), painter and designer, and Edgar Bayley (1919-1990), poet, share the features of simplicity, sobriety, and accuracy. But their blood relation is not enough to explain that “family air” that binds their productions. Their different artistic disciplines blurs the comparison of these features in their work. This study starts from the concept of «purity of forms», present in the develop - ment of abstract art and modern poetry, and the comparative analysis of the theoretical productions of both artists, and inquires about mutual influences and joint reflections which led them to agree on and elaborate a consolidated avant-garde discourse, which ended up linking their productions

Pero su lazo familiar, no resulta suficiente para explicar ese “aire de familia” que emparenta sus producciones. La diferencia de las disciplinas hace que esos rasgos se tornen difusos para compararlas. A partir de la problematización del concepto de «pureza de las formas», que atraviesa el desarrollo del arte abstracto y de la poesía moderna, y del análisis comparativo de las producciones teóricas de ambos, este trabajo busca indagar acerca de las influencias mutuas y las reflexiones conjuntas, que los llevaron a coincidir y a elaborar una discursividad vanguardista consolidada, que terminó por hermanar sus producciones.
