Spanish term (edited):
recuperar la po�tica de lo popular
re-discover the poetic in the popular
Meaning the poetic "thing" in the popular "thing".
The original is artsy-fartsy non-sense, without a gram of unequivocal meaning. Recover does not cut it.

Instead of \"re-discover\" perhaps \"bring out\"

: This is just not something a native English speaker would say. "Recover from". "Popular" is not used as a noun in English.

Spanish term (edited):
recuperar la po�tica de lo popular
take back / reclaim
I would use either "take back" or "reclaim" for recuperar. It denotes something that was originally lost / taken away.

I suggest pop art because good folk art has never even been in danger of losing its intrinsic poetic nature.
