Moderno, Gimnasio

image by Ivan Sache, 1 January 2021

Gimnasio Moderno, located in Bogotá, was founded in 1914. The today's institute was built in 1918 on on a plot offered by José María Samper and with funds provided by Agustín Nieto Caballero, Rafael, Félix and José de Jesús Salazar, Gabriel and Joaquín Camacho, Luis Eduardo Nieto, Ricardo Olano, Paulina de Cano, Nicolás Camargo, Daniel Sáenz, Joaquín Samper, Sergio Martínez and José María Samper. The founders belonged to the so-called "Centenary's Generation"; referring to the 100th anniversary of the independence of Colombia (1810), this modernist movement wanted to rebuild the country destroyed by the Thousand Days War, that had opposed the Liberals and the Conservatives in 1899-1902.
Gimnasio Moderno was thought as a "new school" free from any direct or indirect influence of the Roman Catholic Church; quickly ranked among the best Colombian schools, the institute was the first successful "new school" in South America. The main promoter of Gimnasio Moderno was the educationalist Agustín Nieto Caballero (1889-1975), who imported several modernist ideas from Europe and North America, where he had studied and taught until 1914. He was in touch with the most modernist educationalists of the time, for instance Ovidio Decroly, Maria Montessori and Jean Piaget. Nieto subsequently represented Colombia in several international conferences (for instance, at the League of Nations and UNESCO), was a main contributor to the development of education in Colombia (for instance, as the director of the National University), always promoting the cultural relations between Colombia and the rest of the world. The first director of Gimnasio Moderno (1918-1933) was Tomás Rueda Vargas (1879-1943), also the author of historical novels and director of the Colombian National Library.

image by Ivan Sache, 15 December 2018

Colegio Gimnasio Mompiano (CGM) was established in 1991 in Cartagena de Indias (Bolívar Department), as Jardín Infantil Mompiano. CGM is named for borough Mompiano, part of the municipality of Brescia (Italy), where the sisters Rosa (1866-1951) and Carolina Agazzi (1870-1945) established in 1895 a kindergarten for poor children. Rejecting any sophistication and use of expensive material, the Agazzi sisters were progressively overshadowed by Maria Montessori. This did not prevent their principles, developed in several books, to spread to Belgium, Switzerland, Romania, Spain, Germany and South America.

The flag of CGM is vertically divided green-white-red, a deliberate tribute to Italy and the Agazzi sisters.
