"Peruvian people and landscape" Peruvian-Russian Cultural Center Art Galery
Luis
Guardamino Villegas was born in Huamantanga-Canta and studied in “Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes” in Lima. Already
finished his first academic objectives, he decided to make his own space in the Peruvian market of painting. He has assumed
a responsibility with absolutely serenity and now, owner of his job walks toward the facing of the tradition and, costumes
of our people in the different places with that love he knows how to keep in his blood by our culture.
Finishing
a first stage, his work is focused now to the plastic essence, bringing more attention to the colors, always interested in
saying his truth in a simply and serene way.
It
is admirable how Guardamino can express his voice made with shape and color when he paints the nature, the agriculture, the
religiosity of his place formed by faith and hopeless.
I
assumed this painter is entirely focused to succeed; he has all the tools and also his passion for painting that for him and
many ones is a real language.
When
many painters worry to succeed as soon as possible by imitating vanguards’ art, Guardamino work hardly on his roots,
studying our history and taking reference of the ancient cultures that may be the real base to build a Peruvian art that goes
beyond of our limits.
