The seminar ?Materiality between Art, Science, and Culture in the Viceroyalties? brought together art historians, conservators, and conservation scientists to analyze the art of the Spanish viceroyalties from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries. Over a period of three years, this project organized a series of seminars, involving presentations and site visits in Buenos Aires, Córdoba, and Los Angeles. Specialists from Latin America, Europe, and the United States have adopted a holistic research approach, taking into account all aspects of colonial artworks: material, contextual, and conceptual.
