Signos (magazine)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Signos was a magazine of 1980s Spanish poetry founded by Leopoldo Alas , Luis Cremades, Mario Miguez, and the Swiss painter Daniel Garbade . The journal, published by Editiones Libertarias and El Observatorio, was headed by Leopoldo Alas, who published extraordinary and previously unpublished poems by well-known authors for publication.

The editions sought today were printed until 1992, when Signos became the imprint of the Huerga y Fierro publishing house in Madrid.
