María Luy

María Luy, born in Puerto Maldonado in 1950, is a prominent Peruvian artist and cultural manager who emerged in the 1970s art movement. As a former student of the School of Fine Arts in Lima, she played a crucial role in the development of public art initiatives alongside her husband, Francesco Mariotti. Luy's work often addresses themes of femininity and childhood, and she has made significant contributions to cultural management, particularly as a manager of a Spanish-language bookstore in Zurich. Her artistic endeavors, alongside her extensive collaboration and activism, are currently featured in an exhibition titled 'El pensamiento es un jardín híbrido'.
