Peruvian Art Style

Music within Peru dates back literally thousands of years, preserved by the local community. Music plays a large part of the culture of Peru, where locals build their own instruments. Ancient Peruvian instruments were made from a variety of materials including cane, conch shells, horns, precious metals, and even mud!   Peru Music is a merger of sound and style absorbing on the ancient musical roots of Peru and musical influences of Spain.
Peruvian art is known for it's deep ties throughout Peru's history, well distinguished by it's pre-Hispanic shapes and symbols. This ancient Peruvian art has merged with the art style that was brought across the world by the Spanish conquistadors. The resulting art style is known as naïf, and it gives Peru an interesting diversity with it's local arts and crafts that is like no other.
