Retablo painter from Peru. During the 1940s, a resurgence of retablo making began in Peru, due in large part to the research and philanthropy of Alicia Bustamante, a member of the Peruvian indigenista movement, who encouraged Joaquin Lopez Antay to revitalize the form. She enlisted him to make retablos that included themes of everyday life, so that a distinction emerged between the retablo for ritual and religious purposes and the retablo as decoration (from San Diego Museum of Man exhibition).
