He wrote about sociology, history, art, moral, economy,
epistemology and theology in a magisterial and creative way, using different
genres of literature. González is considered one of the most original writers
of Colombia during the 20th century.
His ideas were controversial and had a great influence in
the Colombian society at his time and today. The González work was the
inspiration of Nadaism, a literary movement founded by one of his disciples, Gonzalo
Arango.
The Otraparte Villa, his house in Envigado, is today a
museum and the headquarters of the cultural foundation to preserve and promote
his legacy. The place was declared a National Patrimony of Colombia in 2006.
