Milner Cajahuaringa

1987 · 10 min

This documentary shows painter José Milner Cajahuaringa (1932-2017) at the Temple of the Moon in Pachacamac with the porticos that inspired his work. Cajahuaringa's work stands out for its play with complementary colors, trapezoidal images, and geometric shapes that characterized the architecture of ancient Tahuantinsuyo. His art was inspired by the spiritual grandeur of Peru's artistic past.
