A friendly and critical group: Conversations with Los Culturales

Abstract

The objective of this article is to explore the characteristics, history, and goals of the study group "Los Culturales". To achieve this, 4 interviews were conducted with its founding members (Juan Daniel Ramírez, Juan José Yosef, Héctor Mugas, and Christian Sebastián), who, from a Historical-Cultural paradigm, have problematized the relationship between art, education, and psychology. The interviews provide deeper insight into both the trajectory of the group and the elements that distinguish it from other academic spaces, emphasizing how their friendships and openness to dialogue enable them to sustain critical discussions.
