Arte de Retorno. La retroalimentación artística entre América Latina y las Islas Canarias, y su papel en la conformación del patrimonio colonial chileno (siglos xvii-xviii)

Abstract

The objective of this article is to propose a new concept, the Art of Return, which gives a name to the process of artistic feedback between Latin America and the Canary Islands in the colonial period. The transfer of influences in an Atlantic and commercial context between Europe and America allows the formulation of the aforementioned concept, which adapts to this round trip, and whose protagonists are the viceroyalties and the Canary Islands. In the same way, we intend to observe the extent to which this intellectual trade influenced the conformation of the colonial heritage in Chile.
