Juan Vicente Aliaga (born 1959) is a Spanish art critic who has written widely on contemporary conceptual art as well as on gender and queer theory.[1][2] In his pioneer[1] 1997 book Identidad y diferencia: sobre la cultura gay en España, co-authored with José Miguel G. Cortés, he expressed criticism of the assimilationist strategies of mainstream LGBT+ associations in Spain, advocating instead for a politics of difference and the reappropriation of slurs like "marica" and "maricón", similarly to what happened with "queer" in English-speaking countries.[3]
