Abstract

This article deals with the representation of the pampa in the work of fiveArgentinean painters in their relationships with the descriptions of the regionby several Argentinean novelists and poets of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.The analysis is based on the distinction between spaces and places and the wayin which the latter are constituted from a balancing center (Arnheim, 1982). Thepaintings studied are the following: Miguel Ocampo’s Horizonte (1981) y Pampa,(1981), Ángel Della Valle’s Un potrero (ca. 1900-03), Enrique Policastro’s Paisaje,Raúl Soldi’s La chacra (1950), and Florencio Molina Campos’ La tropilla (1954).
