Abstract
During a relatively brief period—from the mid-nineteen-fifties to the early sixties—Paraguayan artistic production, which had been marked by inertia and chronic isolation, underwent an unusual process of renewal as it found a place in new regional artistic circuits. The Brazilian Cultural Mission, which strategically pursued rapprochement as it vied with Argentina for hegemony, coupled with a shift in Paraguayan foreign policy as the Adolfo Stroessner regime opened up to the east, favored, on a structural level, the insertion of Paraguayan modern art in the regional milieu. The Asunción-based Arte Nuevo group was central to that process.
