Summary Between 1876 and 1911, the 'Porfirian' art and culture tendencies followed two attractive and quite opposite models. One model followed the liberal and nationalistic tendency that encouraged writers and artists to use Mexican subjects and contribute to the reinforcement of national identity. The second involved many creators that identified themselves in the avant-garde and cosmopolitan tendencies that came from Europe, where the one that stood out was modernism. Both had a huge strength and neither admitted an easy nor immediate synthesis. Between the aspiration of rescuing the local culture and the eagerness to follow the modern world avant-gardes, Mexico gave in to a constant dialogue that continues until today.
