Art Opening Reception & Artist Talk
Expressiones presents San Francisco-based Peruvian artist, Walter Guerra Ostolaza. Walter studied at the National School of Fine Arts in Peru and then specialized in Art Conservation. Since 1985 he has participated in several choral groups finding delight in musical interpretation. He is passionate about investigating histories and his passion is reflected in the two series he is presenting in this exhibit. Through the beauty of his own iconography and fantasy, these histories are translated into cubist expressionist forms, colors and shapes.
