The history of art in Argentina in the XX-XXI centuries is studied mainly in three directions: the genre system, the spiritual and content aspect of works and creative biographies of outstanding masters. Special attention is paid to the links between the art of the Old and New World. Nowadays, the issue of connecting the artistic culture of the regions of Argentina — the center of the country, the northeast, and the northwest - is becoming urgent. The provinces not only perceived the trends of the capital's cultural policy, but also built their own cultural institutions that contributed to the creation and translation of the meanings of works about the uniqueness of human and nature connections far from Buenos Aires, and what is especially significant - about the diversity of ethnic types and characters. Such outstanding masters as Lino Enea Spilimbergo, Antonio Berni, Raul Monsegur, Eddie Torre taught in provincial art schools. They moved quite often from city to city, from province to province. We can assume that in the 40-50s of the XX century. in Cordoba, Mendoza, Tucuman and Resistencia, there were already professionals in all kinds of art. Argentine domestic scientists began to study these processes not so long ago. In this article, special attention is paid to the analysis of cultural heritage and the museum collection of the association El Fogón de los Arrieros (EFA, "Hearth of teamsters", hereinafter - Fogón), located in Resistencia, the capital of the province of Chaco, now known in the country as the City of Sculptures. Fogón became famous for its diverse cultural, educational activities, which began in 1943 and continues to this day. In the history of Fogón, a new type of educator has developed in the person of Aldo Boletti, Juan de Dios Mena, Hilda Torres Varela. The study used the historical and typological method and the method of art criticism analysis.
