Despite being unable to welcome art lovers to check out in-person exhibits as usual, the folks at the O’Hanlon Center for the Arts have stayed extremely bust of late.
Fresh on the heels of its “Humankind in Crisis” exhibit, the nonprofit arts organization followed it up with “Me to Myself,” which focused on the centuries-old tradition of self portraits. Now they’re set continue a series of conversations with artists, this time with a Zoom chat with Oscar Lopez, one of the artists featured in “Me to Myself.”
Born and raised in Mexico City, where he first came into contact of the art world in the Graffiti urban art scene, Lopez immigrated to the Bay Area, studying at Foothill College and getting introduced to the fine art world by his teachers and encouraged him to study at the Academy Art University.
The Zoom chat Is set for Tuesday, July 7 at 5pm.
