Oswaldo Guayasamin was born in Quito and is renowned for his contribution to the plight of the ethnic man in South America through his paintings depicting the torture and pain which these indigenous groups have had to suffer. It was his aim to bring together the ancient cultures of Maya, Aztec and Inca together in the form of a unification of all South American countries into one alliance. He designed and built Capilla del Hombre, a monumental exhibition space based on the Inca Temple of the Sun, which we visited today along with his house, which also holds a pre-columbian artifact and colonial art exhibitions.
