Abstract
RESUMEN: El arte de acción ha tenido desigual fortuna en España, tanto en lo que se refiere a la práctica artística como a su estudio por parte de la historia del arte. Entendido como expresión liberadora y progresista por la crítica coetánea, y por tanto contra a los parámetros culturales de la dictadura, en este artículo proponemos volver al archivo para problematizar dicha comprensión y valoración crítica de estos modos de interpretación y aceptación. Nuestro estudio se centra en el happening y su desarrollo en la década de los sesenta y setenta del siglo XX en España a través de la relevancia de algunos eventos que no han pasado al archivo (la importancia de Granollers, la participación de Dalí, p.e.), centrándonos en las acciones de Antoni Miralda donde se desvelan culturas de consenso y arraigo que cuestionan las interpretaciones historiográficas dadas.
ABSTRACT: Performance art in Spain, both as an art practice and as a subject of scholarly study, has traditionally been varyingly understood. Taken as a token for freedom and resistance politics by critics opposed to the cultural parameters imposed by the dictatorship, in this article the author proposes a revision of the archive with the aim of roblematizing such understanding and critical comprehension. This study concentrates on happenings and their development during the sixties and seventies in Spain that have gone unnoticed in historical research (i.e. the importance of Granollers, Dalí’s participation in some happenings), with emphasis on the works of Antoni Miralda which deal with the culture of consensus and traditions that challenge other firmly established interpretations.
