The Cabinet as interartistico dialogue: Millán is an art collector, curator and post-producer of written visuality [El gabinete como diálogo interartístico. Gonzalo millán coleccionista, curadory postproductor de visualidad escrita]

Abstract

Gabinete de papel works as an extension or expansion of the relation between writing and the visual started with Claroscuro and continued with Autorretrato de memoria. If the images created by Zurbaran and Caravaggio are a pretext for the poet to mark a turning point in his literary output, his cabinet as a programmatic space allows him to deepen and diversify his literary trace, rooting his quest in artistic models that are closer to his poetics. It is possible, then, to recognize, among others, Brueghel's prints o Hopper's canvasses in Millán's ethics of writing. Millán is an art collector and a curator that post-produces a written visuality.
