Question

What does Colonial Art from Latin America reveal?

Answer 1

Answer:

Spanning over two continents, starting in Mexico and extending all the way down to South America, the art produced during the Spanish colonial period consisted of paintings, sculptures, and decorative artifacts. When Christopher Columbus arrived in the New World in 1492, all that had previously been in the Americas before that time is dubbed pre-Columbian. The Spanish colonial period comes to an end in the mid-1820s when Spain's grasp on her colonies in the Caribbean is lost and Latin American independence is achieved by numerous nations today.

Answer 2

Answer:

In the United States, the burgeoning population of Latinos—people of Latin American descent—and consequently the rise of Spanish (and Spanglish) speakers, Latino musical genres, literature, and visual arts, require that we better understand the cultural origins of these diverse communities. Even beyond our borders, Latin American countries continue to exert influence over political and economic policies, while their artistic traditions are everyday made more and more accessible at cultural institutions like art museums
