Indians In Art Exhibitions

One of the events organized around the reopening of the MALI (Museo de Arte de Lima), was the exhibition of a collection of drawings by Camilo Blas (b. Cajamarca 1903-Lima 1985), a fundamental figure of the Indigenista Movement. Despite his important position in Peruvian art, Camilo Blas artwork has not been properly studied. This book gathers in one volume his oil paintings, drawings and numerous documents related to Blas' lifelong art production, establishing as starting point a collection of drawings purchased by the Museum of Lima through the generosity of Petrus Fernandini.
