"El conflicto entre realismo y abstracción en el ámbito del arte español como reaparición de la "Querelle des Anciens et des Modernes

Connections are established with other aesthetic conflicts which are considered part of a genealogy whose most explicit antecedent could be placed in the before mentioned complaint, such as the confrontation between realism and abstraction in the American art scene, which occurred in the fifties of the last century, and the more recent controversy on pluralism and the end of art
