    Débora Arango. La transgresora de los signos de 1939. (1907-2005)
    (Corporación Universitaria Lasallista, 2006) Jemio Arnez, Kathya
    The exhibition of the nudes La Amiga (the Girlfriend) and La Cantarina de la Rosa (the Rose Singer) and the prize awarded to their creator, the painter Debora Arango at the Exhibition of Professional Artists (Medellin, November 1939), was received with strong criticism and moral condemnation by conservative social sectors, as is noted in the following newspapers: El Heraldo de Antioquia, El Diario, El Colombiano, El Pueblo and La Defensa. The conclusions clearly show that such reactions of repudiation did not only focus on the aesthetic form, but that also includes, in an overwhelming fashion, religious, moral and cultural beliefs as well as competition among painters. The discussion, generated by critics, journalists, painters, authorities and collaborators, translate the beliefs, values, stereotypes and feelings of society regarding the female naked body.
