The Liliana Bloch Gallery presents a series of Selected Works by Antonio Lechuga, a multidisciplinary artist born in Dallas, TX, where he currently lives and works. He attended the Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles, CA.
Antonio’s practice focuses on the intersection of art, design, architecture, and social change. He uses a varied visual language of materials and processes to discuss and investigate his culture and existence; both his existence and experiences as a Tejano living in the 21st century, and its constant battle with the erasure of that history. Antonio’s research aims to piece together new narratives for the Mexican-American Texas region, highlighting its rich, deep, and turbulent past.
Lechuga has exhibited at the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Blaffer Art Museum in Houston, TX, the Texas Biennial, and Various Small Fires in Dallas, TX; and had solo exhibitions at Love Texas Art Gallery in Fort Worth, TX, the Oak Cliff Cultural Center, and Daisha Board gallery. Antonio’s work is part of the permanent collections of the Dallas Museum of Art. His work is currently on display as part of a group exhibition, “Los Encuentros,” at the Ballroom Marfa in Marfa, TX.
