Abstract
From the middle of the 20th century to the end of the 1990s, avant-garde cohabited with the Venezuelan State in a complex relationship that founded the national political system on the basis of populist literature and abstract art. In this article, I review some of the verbal and visual policies that accompanied the transition from dictatorships to democracy in Venezuela. For this, I discuss some of the literary, artistic and political avant-garde milestones, as well as two “beauty pageant elections” that functioned as a driving force for the fight for democracy in this country.
