Luis Quintanilla was born in Santander, Spain, in 1893. During his lifetime, Quintanilla was a muralist and worked in many different mediums. His family moved to Madrid in 1905, where he studied architecture. During this time, he traveled to England, Brazil and Paris. While in Paris, he met Juan Gris. There he began painting. Quintanilla returned to Spain in 1915. In 1920 he traveled to Paris, where he began a friendship with Amedeo Modigliani and author Ernest Hemingway. Quintanilla moved to the United States, settling in New York, in January of 1939, which began his thirty-seven year exile from Spain. He was a part of the Rockefeller Foundation’s Committee for Displaced Scholars and Artists program. That same year he painted a mural for the Spanish Pavilion at the World’s Fair in New York titled Love Peace Hate War.In September 1940, Quintanilla came to the University of Kansas City to serve as the first artist-in-residence at the university. Clarence Decker, the president of the university, commissioned Quintanilla to paint a mural with the theme of 'Don Quixote in the Modern World.' Art students at the university at the time also assisted Quintanilla in painting the mural. While they were helping him, they received instruction in the different techniques of mural painting. The mural has six panels and totals 375 square feet. The murals are on the second floor of Haag Hall. During his stay at the university, in addition to working on the mural, Quintanilla also gave lectures on painting and art. Quintanilla used students, staff and faculty as models for his paintings. He died in 1978 in Madrid, Spain.

QUINTANILLA LUIS: (1893-1978) Spanish Cubist
Est: £80 - £100
QUINTANILLA LUIS: (1893-1978) Spanish Cubist Artist. T.L.S., Luis Quintinalla, two pages, 4to, East Hampton, 24th December 1941, to Mr. Ostrell. The artist refers to one of his lithographs and comments 'But even I cannot explain what it represents; as you know an artist says things with figures and is at a loss for words to express their meaning.' He further explains 'What I can tell you is that that lithograph, leaving to one side its artistic merit, is the first to be done in all colors in its extraordinary size' and informs his correspondent about the history of the work, created in New York, 'I drew the seven large plates, each in one color, and I directed the printing', also remarking on how he lost the rights to the work, 'You will realize that the artist is always the most wronged, and for that reason I would appreciate it if you would tell me from whom you bought the lithograph and how much you paid for it....it grieves me....that a work of mine which is extraordinary in proportions at least, has brought me nothing but displeasure.' A letter of interesting content. VG
