Summary:"By exploring how formal art education was established in Quito during the period from the second half of the 19th century to the first quarter of the 20th, I want to look into the emergence of a modern system of the arts in Ecuador. I am interested in responding to the following questions: What pedagogical methodologies, materials, and techniques were introduced? What were the consequences of the bureaucratic demands of directing an art school on the figure of the artist and their art production? What were the processes through which this managerial practice evolved into a professional one? How did the new model of art training contribute to new art concepts, practices, and more generally to the cultural field in relation to the project of nation state building?"
