Although shortly after his death in Dos Ríos, began to take shape the processes of sacralization ofMartí and the canonization of his literary work, with the passage of the decades and during the course of the 20th Century the process was deepened. Towards the end of the 1980s and the following decade there was a huge exodus of Cuban intellectuals and artists in rejection of the isolation and severity and intolerance of the ideological and political controls that harassed Cuban culture. Although the ways in which each of them has been related to culture have been different, they all agree on the position of (re)thinking of José Martí as an exemplary figure. Mariel, a journal led by a group of Cuban writers and artists exiled in the United States, in his latest issue dedicates a tribute to Martí in which Armando Valladares, Reinaldo Arenas, Reinaldo Sánchez, Carlos Victoria, Luis Felipe Roca, Enrico Mario Santí, Jesús J. Barquet, Carlos Ripoll, Víctor Batista and other authors write. This issue reveals an exhaustion of the figure of José Martí and can be considered a true turning point in Cuban thought produced from exile.
