José Alfonso Sánchez Urteaga,1 known
as Camilo Blas (Cajamarca, March 19, 1903 - Lima, July 26, 1985), was a
Peruvian indigenist painter.
Biography
Camilo Blas had Ana María Siles as his
wife and his daughters are Elena, Hilda, Berta and Gabriela. Since childhood he
showed his artistic spirit through drawings and sketches. Thanks to the support
of his uncle, the Cajamarca artist Mario Urteaga, he took his first steps in
painting.
He entered the National University of Trujillo
to study Law, a career that he completed. He did his art studies at the
National School of Fine Arts in Lima under the direction of Daniel Hernández
and later with José Sabogal. His classmates included Ricardo Flórez, Camino
Brent and Julia Codesido. From 1933, he was a professor of fine arts for many
years and then Director of the School of Fine Arts in Lima.
With a refined style, within the
indigenist current, he knew how to add a touch of subtlety and color of his own
to his drawings.
Due to the large number of Peruvian
costumbrist drawings that his works present, both from Cajamarca and from all
of Peru, he is also considered the "Pancho Fierro serrano".
