The principal aim of this investigation is to systematise and analyse the art documentaries produced by the entity called NO-DO (Noticiarios y Documentales; 鈥淣ews and Documentaries鈥� in English), from its creation by the end of 1942 until its official deletion in 1981. Thus, we have focused on examining the different activities in which the institution organised its production always within the area of the report and the documentary. In this regard, the development of the art documentary flourished in the documentary section represented by the entity鈥檚 initials 鈥淒O鈥� itself, as well as in the magazine Im谩genes, a weekly production format whose activity took place between 1945 and 1968.
