Resumo(s)
The subject of this thesis is the Sueños series: photomontages completed
between the years of 1948-1951 in Buenos Aires by the artist Grete Stern. This series,
originally published in the popular magazine Idilio, illustrates dreams submitted by
readers for the column ‘El psicoanálisis te ayudará’. These images constitute a feminist
intervention into mainstream representations of women in visual culture and invite this
magazine’s young female readership to reimagine standards of conventional femininity
through laughter. The feminist agenda behind this series is defined through humor and
comedic effect. In the space of this thesis, I explore how this work represents a
significant contribution to feminist Surrealism and prompts reflection on an essential link
between humor, politics, and visual art
