Artist’s reception: Thursday, February 1st | 6 – 9 pm

(Laguna Beach) Victor Hugo Zayas is a painter and sculptor that has defined himself through a rigorous dedication to his craft and both intimate and grand expressions of the vibrant and gritty soul of Los Angeles.

Having relocated only a handful of times in the past 25 yrs within the same small area of East L.A., Victor Hugo has a deep and lasting relationship with the buildings, bridges, and pockets of nature that flank the L.A. River. His entire body of work is a breathing testament in oils and steel to the city that has, as he often expresses, given him so much.

saltfineart is proud to coordinate a comprehensive look at the last 15 years of Victor Hugo’s work with select paintings and sculpture from the artist’s studio. Spanning 3 distinct series, this exhibition with investigate visually and through the written presentation, the impact Victor Hugo has had on his community. Writings will include first-hand accounts from collectors, fellow creatives, and museums who have shown his work.
