Biographical/Historical Note
César Moro was born Alfredo Quíspez Asín on August 19, 1903 in Lima, Peru. He changed his name in 1923 to that of a character
in a story by Gomez de la Serna. Two years later he joined his older brother in Paris, where he intended to become a ballet
dancer, but instead began writing poetry in French and painting, both activities influenced by the Surrealist movement. During
his time in Paris he participated in exhibitions and published poems in Surrealist publications. He also met and began long
friendships with other artists, including Benjamín Péret, Paul Éluard, and André Breton.
Moro returned to Lima in 1933, where he continued to write and paint, and established a museum and taught art classes for
the mentally ill at the Hospital Larco Herrera. He also began a long friendship and collaboration with Emilio Westphalen soon
after his return to Peru. In 1935 Moro organized the first Surrealist Exposition in South America but had to leave Peru in
1938 after he and Westphalen published and distributed a clandestine pamphlet in support of the Spanish Republic. He claimed
political asylum in Mexico, where he lived for the next ten years.
During his time in Mexico Moro wrote for various publications and co-organized the 1940 Exposición Internacional del Surrealismo
along with André Breton and Wolfgang Paalen, which gathered works by Pablo Picasso, Agustín Lazo, and Salvador Dalí, among
others. Moro also began new friendships with artists including Xavier Villaurrutia, Remedios Varo, and Leonora Carrington.
In 1942 Moro published
Lettre d'amour, a long poem in French. In 1943 he published his first book of poems,
Le Château de Grisou.
In 1944 Moro broke with the Surrealist movement, and Breton in particular, but he continued to maintain friendships with other
Surrealists living in the Americas. He also became close to Mexican artists in the Contemporaneo group, particularly Rufino
Tamayo and Xavier Villaurrutia. Moro returned to Lima in 1948, where he dedicated himself to teaching at the Alianza Francesa
and the Colegio Militar Leoncio Prado. He died in 1956.

Scope and Content of Collection
The César Moro papers consist primarily of personal documents, manuscripts, and correspondence from 1925 to Moro's death in
1956. The dates of the collection encompass Moro's years in Paris from 1925 to 1933, his work in Lima in the 1930s, his ten
years of political asylum in Mexico from 1938 to 1948, and his final eight years back in Lima.
Moro's papers provide insight into the Surrealist and avant-garde movements in Europe and Latin America over three decades.
His correspondence with other Surrealist artists offers a glimpse into Moro's interpersonal relationships before, during and
after World War II; of particular interest is his rocky relationship and eventual break with André Breton and Surrealism.
Moro's published and unpublished manuscripts, personal library, and collected manuscripts and artwork by mentally ill patients
at the Hospital Larco Herrera illustrate his artistic and literary interests.
The correspondence, manuscripts, and printed matter are supplemented by several pieces of artwork, including two collages
by Moro that were exhibited in Europe, and by personal photographs of Moro, his friends and family.
