Poemas árticos of Vicente Huidobro is one of the most influential works in the evolution of avant-garde poetry in Spain and Hispanic American countries, especially the former post-1918, when the Chilean poet visited its capital, frequented \u27tertulias\u27 of the leading literary figures of the time, such as Cansinos-Assens and Ramon Gomez de la Serna and kept an apartment in Madrid. At the same time, Huidobro \u27s own poetry enjoyed considerable success among young Spanish poets such as Gerargo Diego and Juan Larrea, encouraging them to compose poems based on the new esthetics, which were mainly elaborated by Parisian artists, but also reflected in Huidobro\u27s own poetics of Creationism. Guillermo de Torre, future critic of avant-garde literature and founder of the Ultraismo, the principal avantgarde movement in Spanish literature, is a case in point. In this brief article, we cite the testimony of scholars such as Rene de Costa and Cedmil Goic, as well as the above-mentioned writers and poets, concerning Huidobro\u27s stay in Madrid and the publication of his book and in light of this evidence, propose a reevaluation of creationist poetry
