Julio Larraz’ Made in USA at Ascaso Gallery

Oct 7 - Nov 30, 2016

The dramaturgy of Larraz–the chromatic, compositional, thematic, and textural delights in which he indulges, plays a fundamental role in his art. We are reminded in these numbing times that painting has always been conceptual and dramatic, but that unlike the prattle of contemporary installations, it continues to be enigmatic

Julio Larraz b. Havana, Cuba, 1944. The son of a newspaper publisher, he began to draw at a very early age. In 1964 living in New York City he began to draw political caricatures which were published by the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune and Vogue magazine, among others. Julio Larraz is best known for his precise and detailed technique, his imagination, and his unique subtle touch, all of which have helped affirm his reputation as one of the most important contemporary Latin American painters.
