Abstract

This review presents Cora Roca’s main contribution to Rodolfo Franco’spersonal appreciation, as the first Argentinian scenographer. We analyze twotexts written by Roca (Rodolfo Franco: el fundador de la escenografía argentina(2016) [Rodolfo Franco: Founder of Argentinian Scenography] and RodolfoFranco: escritos sobre arte y escenografía (2018) [Rodolfo Franco: On Art andScenography]) to reach a general outline of theatre field in Buenos Aires at thatperiod. In reading both texts we will find a complementary stance to look intoFranco’s work as an essential scenographer devoted to his labour on a nationalscale woven into a european education and perspective.
