Argentina has a rich history of different types of art. Throughout the centuries it has changed, and finally became what it is today.
An Argentine painting refers to all the pictorial production done in the country of Argentina throughout the centuries.




Pre-Columbian painting


Cueva de las Manos (Cave of the Hands), in Patagonia, Argentina, is an example of one such work. It has been declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO. Other important prehistoric artwork is located in the north of Córdoba. A collection of more than 35,000 pictographs (one of the densest collections of such images in the world) is found in the hills of Colorado, Veladero, Intihuasi and Unmount.
More recently, the pre-Hispanic cultures that inhabited the present territory of Argentina left a number of pictorial records. In the Andean northeast, the Ceramic Period cultures, from the Condorhuasi culture (400 BCE–700 CE) to the La Aguada (650–950 CE) and Santa María (1200–1470 CE), show a comprehensive development in the painting of ceramics and stone.













Colonial painting


During the Spanish colonial era, painting developed primarily as a religious art in churches, designed to Christianize indigenous peoples. Colonial-era religious painting was often done by forced indigenous artists and African slaves under the power of the religious orders.
Colonial painting is also seen in the books and manuscripts made by colonists, priests, scientists, and visitors. Notable among these are the drawings and watercolors of the German Jesuit Florian Paucke (1719–1789).
In what is now northwest Argentina, especially in Jujuy, the Cuzco School developed in the churches, with its images of ángeles arcabuceros (angels armed with Spanish colonial muskets) and triangular virgins (a syncretism of the cult of the Virgin Mary and the Pachamama).













Nineteenth century


In the first years of the 19th century, many foreign artists visited and resided in Argentina, leaving their works. Among them were English mariner Emeric Essex Vidal (1791–1861), a watercolorist who left important graphic evidence of Argentine history; French engineer Carlos E. Pellegrini (1800–1875), who was devoted to painting out of necessity and who would be the father of president Carlos Pellegrini; the mariner Adolfo D'Hastrel (1805–1875), who published his drawings and watercolors in the book Colección de vistas y costumbres del Río de la Plata (1875); and lithographer César Hipólito Bacle (1790–1838).
In the 1830s, Carlos Morel (1813–1894), considered the first strictly Argentine painter, came to prominence. Soon after followed Prilidiano Pueyrredón (1823–1870) and Cándido López (1840–1902), who painted the life of gauchos and the wars of premodern Argentina.
In the middle of the 19th century the first Argentine artistic institutions began to be organized. These included La Sociedad Estímulo de Bellas Artes and El Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, whose first director was the painter Eduardo Schiaffino. The great wave of European immigration (1870–1930) established a strong relationship to European painting, mainly through Italian painters or children of Italians. Eduardo Sívori (1847–1918) introduced naturalism with works such as El despertar de la criada, followed by painters like Reinaldo Giudici (1853–1927) and Ernesto de la Cárcova (1866–1927), Ángel Della Valle (1852–1903) developed a painting movement depicting the customs of the countryside, with works like La vuelta del malón.





































Twentieth century



At a 1902 exhibition, Martín Malharro (1865–1911) introduced impressionism to Argentina. He was followed by painters including Faustino Brughetti (1877–1956), Walter de Navazio (1887–1919) and Ramón Silva (1890–1919). Soon after, Fernando Fader (1882–1935) and the artists of the Nexus group began to push for the development of artistic currents that, without ignoring or disavowing the painting fashionable in Paris, would be capable of expressing independent views of painting.

The first major artistic movements in Argentina coincided with the first signs of political liberty in the country, such as the 1913 sanction of the secret ballot and universal male suffrage, the first president to be popularly elected (1916), and the cultural revolution that involved the University Reform of 1918. In this context, in which there continued to be influence from the Paris School (Modigliani, Chagall, Soutine, Klee), three main groups arose.
The Florida group was characterized by paying the highest attention to aesthetics. Its members generally belonged to the middle and upper classes. They met in the Richmond confectionery on the elegant and central calle Florida, from which the group takes its name. Its painters included Aquiles Badi, Héctor Basaldúa, Antonio Berni, Norah Borges, Horacio Butler, Emilio Centurión, Juan del Prete, Raquel Forner, Ramón Gomez Cornet, Alfredo Guttero, Emilio Pettoruti, Xul Solar, and Lino Enea Spilimbergo.
The Boedo group took social issues and struggles as its central themes. El Grupo Boedo, with painters such as José Arato, Adolfo Bellocq, Guillermo Hebécquer and Abraham Vigo. They were centered on the socialist Claridad publishing house, which had its workshops on calle Boedo, in the working-class suburbs of the city. Boedo group painters included José Arato, Adolfo Bellocq, Guillermo Hebécquer, and Abraham Vigo.
The La Boca group was strongly influenced by Italian immigration and developed a distinctive style centered on labor and immigrant neighborhoods. These artists included Victor Cúnsolo, Eugenio Daneri, Fortunato Lacámera, Alfredo Lazzari, Benito Quinquela Martín, and Miguel Carlos Victorica.

The Sensitive painters, characterized by the use of color as an emotional tool. Raúl Soldi was the most prominent of this group; others included Miguel Carlos Victorica, Raúl Russo, Eugenio Daneri, and Miguel Diómede.

This group includes Carlos Alonso, Antonio Berni, Juan Carlos Castagnino, Demetrio Urruchúa, Enrique Policastro. Florencio Molina Campos and Medardo Pantoja can also be included in the group.
