Colin Baldwin's dialogue about the pre-Columbian art of Peru is more than just a quote. We must understand it as a game of aesthetic survival - Aby Warburg's Nachleben - of stimuli that creates a perpetual enveloping modulation full of suggestions.

THE HUACO, the PRE-COLOMBINE ICON BY EXCELLENCE, arrives at the BLOCKCHAIN in the form of NFT
I have rescued THE HUACO to take it to the field of ART with the firm intention of popularising his image and projecting it TOWARDS THE EXCITING FUTURE OF CRYPTOART.
Imagination is the germ of every image, an entity subject to passion. Passion is the catalyst of the idea converted into a plastic event. If there is no passion there is only empty and inert matter.
THE HUACOS, these peculiar Inca objects were found in THE HUACAS (WaKa, from Quechua) term that designated SACRED PLACES dedicated to ancestors and their rituals; thus the use coined the term Huaco to this pecular objects. Objects of communication of practical, philosophical, religious or mythical ideas.
There are many secrets about the cultures of the ANDEAN REGION that still remain hidden.
Collectors and archeologists have rescued from oblivion a lot of material awaiting their study in public museums and private collections. Many artists have worked with the idea of RECOVERING LOST VALUES. From PICASSO'Sfirst works, inspired by some African carving, or the works of the artist PAUL KLEE with his primitive imprint, to the paintings of GUAYASAMÍN, WILFREDO LAM, or the Peruvians FERNANDO DE SZIZLO AND GERARDO CHÁVEZ. This last artist was the first relevant painter from whom I receive instructions that I still remember.
It is possible that the study and observation of statics, manufacturing and philosophy of MOCHICA, MOCHE or PARACAS art will help us imagine the plan for the future, of developement of ideas that disappeared with the European conquest.
