An exhibition of Peru’s pre-Columbian textiles belonging to the Paracas, Nazca, and Chancay cultures will be on display at Chile’s Palacio La Moneda Cultural Center from March 14-16.
The 10 Peruvian heritage objects will participate in the exhibition named “Textiles Latinoamericanos” (Latin American textiles) and it will showcase 13 collections from 8 countries of the region.
The textiles that will be exhibited in Chile are from the National Museum of Archaeology, Anthropology and History of Peru.
The millenary Andean Paracas Textiles has been considered as a meeting point that reveals the origin of the textile tradition from ancient cultures.
The temporary leaving of the pieces has been authorized by a supreme resolution published Sunday in the official gazette El Peruano and it was signed by President Ollanta Humala and Culture Minister Luis Peirano.
