Abstract
This text explores the way the art articles published in the first period of Eco: Revista de la Cultura de Occidente (1960-1963) work as a testimony of the attempt to create a culture of the Occident through a German identity. The text proposes a reading that allows to understand the way in which the discourses about art that appear in Eco had the capacity to transmit the creation of a culture of the Occident, that until the moment was defined from ambiguous notions, from a specific German thought across a cultural journal planned and edited in Colombia. From the analysis of the texts that appear in Eco it is possible to observe how the definition of that assumed identity was given in Colombia thanks to the classification or the selection of specific narratives by the individuals who were directors and editors of the journal and who, in making this selection, defined the Occident for the Colombian reader.
