ABSTRACT: In 1938, seeking a renewed impulse for surrealism, André Breton traveled to México convinced that the country’s culture, with its persistent pre-Hispanic and indigenous traditions, as well as its recent Revolution (1910-1920), represented an alternative to the European situation. He thought of it as a kind of Hegelian overcoming (Aufhebung), believing that this could materialize the spirit of the First (1924) and Second (1929) Manifestos. During those years, fleeing from the war, European artists associated with the Movement arrived in Mexico, and together with some Mexicans, they brought it to life during the 1940s and 1950s. This article, through the recovery of different historical tensions and debates, aims to understand the significance of surrealism’s adventure in Mexico at that time.
