The men are in charge and make the decisions in the family. The women make up of 30% of the labor force, normally taking care of children. The men make up the rest of the labor force and may be occupied in work even in the evening. The families have on average just have 2 children. Good education is important to the children and parents would sacrifice many things just for their education. Artists and sculptors in Argentina have lots of rich history. This history has started even before and since the development of modern Argentina (second half of 19th century). Until after the overthrow of Juan Manuel de Rosas, art production did not truly come into its own. Immigrants from Europe left behind lots of influence to art, such as impressionism which did not make itself evident to Argentina until after 1900. The art of architecture can be said to start from the beginning of the Spanish colonization. Many colonial buildings replicate Spanish architecture but currently, there are many others that are more modernistic. 5 famous people from Argentina are:
Lionel Messi- Soccer Player
Sergio Aguero- Soccer Player
Diego Armando Maradona- National Soccer Team Coach
Carlos Tevez- Soccer Player
Che Guevara- Marxist Revolutionary
