The Colombian Government called in 1928 the sculptor Romulo Rozo, (b. Colombia 1899 - d. Yucatán, Mexico 1964) to design and create the ornamentation of the building built by José Granados for the 1929 International Seville Exhibition. The building was designed inspired in the Latin American religious Baroque architecture. Rozo elaborated a modernist project of sculptural ornamentation, inspired in pre-Columbian art from the cultures of the Maya, Chibcha, Tolima and San Agustín, amongst others.
