The Argentinian (trans)feminist social movements of the last decade have generated practices and narratives that put socio-generic issues -and political- in tension with the identity and diversity of different actors. In the cultural field, certain artistic/cultural experiences with territorial base coincide with these movements in the demand for the visibility of diverse ways of being in the world, their cultural rights and social equity. This article analyzes the synergy both, -in the framework of an investigation carried out between 2015 and 2020- from a socio-anthropological approach and gender(s) perspective, by in-depth interviews, participant and non-participant observations, key informants and the systematization of a collective work that has been done with 40 territorial cultural/artistic experiences between 2019 and mid-2020. Towards the end, the article reflects on how the observed trajectories account for the en-gendered processes of power in the experiences of creation and expression of culture and art in the (re) formulation of social movements and public policies implemented in this field, their management and a State project. Likewise, the intersectional challenge is posed to account for the living culture of our Latin America.
