The aim of this paper is to investigate the environment in which a proposal for photographs and photo montages created in Spain in the 1930s was developed. To achieve this, the experiences of the Spanish artist Josep Renau and his work in the illustrated magazines Orto and Octubre is examined. There is an attempt to explore how the European experience of proletarian culture and photography was circulated and appropriated by the Spanish cultural universe. I believe that during these years Spain became a production hub and disseminator of political iconography which later spread to Mexico and Latin America.
