Summary/Abstract: This article debates the importance of shaping a community's identity and the artist’s identity within one culture starting from the Prehispanic pictograms - where the sense allows itself to be discovered as the image is internalized, this double sense being similar to the reading of the works of Mexican artists Jose Guadalupe Posada, Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo similar to the engraving of the poems of Nichita Stănescu by Mircia Dumitrescu.
