SARAGURO VISTO POR UN ARTISTA DE SARAGURO/ SARAGURO AS SEEN BY A SARAGURO ARTIST

Ilustraciones por (illustrations by) Luis Antonio Lozano Quizhpe


These illustrations by Luis Antonio Lozano Quizhpe of Saraguro are divided (by us) into two sets: Traditional Saraguro, and Contemporary [postmodern?] Saraguro. One drawing shown here, "Courtship in the cerro (mountains)," appears with the title, "Enamoramiento" as Fig. 45 on page 160 in the book LOS SARAGUROS: FIESTA Y RITUALIDAD . Most of the other illustrations in the book were also created by Luis Antonio Lozano. The book was published in Quito by Abya-Yala and authored by six Saraguro scholars (Luis Aurelio Chalán Guamán, Angel Polivio Chalán Lozano, Segundo Luis Francisco Quizhpe Quizhpe, Manuel Santos Guamán Guamán, Segundo Francisco Saca Quizhpe and Mateo Guamán Zhunaula) and compiled by us. Linda asked Luis Antonio if he could also create some additional drawings, including several that reflected the reality of Saraguro life in the 1990s. He could and did, and some of the results are shown below.
