Summary:

An historical vision of art patronage studied from the work carried out during the 20th century by men and women from Mexico and the United States, each with a vision and a personal interest, presenting it under a concept that goes beyond who contributes or gives money, integrating to its definition all those who have harbored the purpose of enriching humanity, and worked towards that goal.
