Luis Alberto Acuña Tapias (Suaita, Santander, 1904 - Tunja, Boyacá 1993), was an important painter, sculptor, teacher, historian, art critic, architectural restorer, public official and art commentator. His legacy consisted in contributing to the course of studies on the study of the Chibcha culture, through the results of his research and his art, which perpetuated his thinking around the cosmogony of this pre-Hispanic society. Maestro Acuña, can be considered as the only Colombian plastic artist, which within the national and Latin American context, interpreted and represented in easel and mural painting, in a single composition, as well as in a set, an idealized vision of almost all the deities that were part of the Chibcha cosmogonic universe, including those that in their own historical moment the Chibchas themselves did not represent, but rather interposed by a person out of respect for their devotion. Acuña through the result of his publications and his art, preserved for posterity what he considered was the ancestral cultural memory of a society that lost its notions of production meaning.
