Este artículo examina el patrocinio público de la diáspora de habla árabe (también conocida como mahjar) en el cono sur, enfocando en el Monumento a la amistad Sirio-Libanesa en São Paulo, Brasil, como un caso de estudio. Proyectada en honor del centenario brasileño de 1922, esta estatua exhibe una iconografía innovadora que fusionó emblemas asociados a la región levantina, a la nación brasileña y a la ciudad de São Paulo simultáneamente. La estatua jugó un rol significativo en la elaboración de una nueva identidad moderna para la colectividad, estableciendo su visibilidad a nivel nacional a comienzos del siglo XX. The Centennial celebrations across Latin America were a fertile moment in which immigrant communities represented themselves within the urban fabric of major cities via monumental patronage. This paper examines the public patronage of the Arab-speaking diaspora (also known as mahjar) in the southern cone by conducting a case study of the Monumento Amizade Sírio Libanesa (The Monument of Syrian-Lebanese Friendship) in São Paulo, Brazil. Designed in honor of the 1922 Brazilian Centennial, this public statue exhibits imaginative new iconography that merged key emblems associated with the Levant, São Paulo,and Brazil. The statue can be seen as playing a major role in the crafting of a modern, collective immigrant identity while also asserting the visibility of the mahjar community at the turn of the twentieth century.
