Is it possible to philosophize about Hispanic American, Latin American or world art?

Abstract

In this brief article we start from three observations: world art cannot exist; therefore, it does not exist; Latin American art can exist, but historically it has not existed; and Hispano-American art can exist and historically it has existed for six centuries. We review the notion of Hispano-American art and ask ourselves about its stages and sources of origin. We inquired about the main socio-cultural processes that had to occur for the emergence of Hispano-American art: syncretism; hybridization; miscegenation and resemantization. We philosophize about various manifestations of Hispano-American art and, finally, we philosophize about the relationship between the Baroque and Hispano-American art.
