Reinoso was born in Arequipa. His first exhibition was in 1917, and by 1918 he had moved to Lima. There, from 1919 to 1924, he was taught by painter Daniel Hernández at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes. He worked for a while as an art critic and caricaturist and in 1925 attained a teaching job at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes.

As a cartoonist, in 1922 he created the first peruvian comic strip series to use speech balloons: Pranks by Serrucho y Volatín.

Reinoso took advantage of the plot of the fabric, incorporating it into the composition. The effects of the fabric appears under the caps of painting, allow him to build his characteristic way of representing the space. “Procesión Serrana” (Procession at the Mountain) is an example of the way in which Vinatea managed this resource. Drawing on the raw fabric, he designed the shades in the architecture of Checacupe’s church. The imprecision of the lines reinforces the effect of light vibration that floods the linen, but it is undoubtedly in the scenes of the lake where he strongly incorporates the use of the fabric into the composition. Painted on jute, these linens complement the plot of the fabric with the selective use of thick fillings that force us to alternate constant between the support and the depth of the represented space. All of this makes sense in the decorative effect of Reinoso’s painting, when he incorporates numerous designs that create the sensation of a tapestry.

Reinoso died in his hometown of Arequipa, and today, his works are housed in public and private collections world wide. Still wondering about a Peruvian painting in your family collection? Contact us…it could be by Jorge Vinatea Reinoso.
