Quotes about Mamani Mamami

"...One of Bolivia's most important artists at the present time (...) he is the painter that has portrayed most times than anyone else the "Virgen Morena of Copacabana" (1)
Dr. Marcelo Arduz Ruiz
DIRECTOR OF THE LIBRARY OF THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS OFFICE OF THE REPUBLIC OF BOLIVIA

"Having a compunctious heart do to repressed anguishes, Mamani Mamani was also fulfilled by a necessity for externalise nostalgia feelings and probably to show the Andean conception of the universe that was sealed by the Fire Sign at the very moment of being conceived at the millenary and legendary Tihuanacu"
Dr. Erick Reyes Villa
CONGRESSMAN OF THE PARLIAMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF BOLIVIA

Jaime Grant
COLUMNIST OF "AMERICAS DE LA OEA" MAGAZINE

"Weaving, is certainly one of the main elements of Aymara's way of life; do to its mythical essence, it is the key in ritual, accomplishes a fundamental role in maternity, arises from the festivities and it is an everyday companion. Aymara's texture is a net of symbolic numbers that tells us about origins and dreams in a plot of colours, expressing the Aymaran conception of the universe. So, universe conception and colour are the columns of Andean weaving. It is not casual then that Mamani Mamani's painting founds it self on the bases of colour, coming this from an actual universe conception. In that sense, Mamani Mamani's work is a proposition that seeds in textile the Andean colours and through them, establishes deep feelings of the Aymaran culture."

BOLIVIAN WRITER
