José León Pagano and the historic value of art. The case of pre-Hispanic and Colonial art in Argentina
Keywords:
Art, intuition-expression, historical value, national artAbstract
This article analyzes Pagano’s notion of art and, particularly, his concept of national art. Taking into account these definitions, we will inquire into the thinking of our art critic on the artistic manifestations of the pre-Hispanic and Colonial period in our territory. In order to do this, we will address some of his most important texts that condense years of work and reflection on these issues: Motivos de estética [Matters of Aesthetics] (1940), El arte de los argentinos [The Art of Argentinians] ([1937] 1981) and «El templo de San Ignacio» [«The Temple of San Ignacio»] published in 1947 by The National Academy of Fine Arts, which complements our study. They will be analyzed in relation to the philosophical thoughts of Benedetto Croce, which exerted great influence in the aesthetic thought of Pagano.Downloads
