Sumario:Due to the characteristics of his work –a new kind of realism tensed by geometry–, his artistic training and his interventions deployed in institutions and groups in Rosario in the forties and fifties, Aldo Magnani (1922-2019) is one of the representative artists of a moment in which modern art was consolidated and expanded in an unusual way. Despite the strange and prolonged silences that later marked his career as an artist, there are vivid biographical traces that allow us to approach, even fragmentarily, those decisive stages of cultural life, and also to place the recovery of a key figure who was rediscovered in the last years of his life.
