Abstract

The publication of Lancelot, 28°-7°. Guía integral de una isla atlántica in 1929 put into play an artistic project about the islands that revolved around a clear awareness of the power of spatial representation. After reviewing some concepts that support the cultural and anthropological importance of space, and the foundational and symbolic magnitude of spatial images, we highlight the key to the profound teaching that Espinosa’s work has exercised: a pedagogy centered on the art of looking deeply.
