All LA County Library locations will be closed on Monday, January 19 in observance of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Our Digital Library is open 24/7.
Join us for a special screening of the documentary, Lejanías y Nostalgia: The Art of Alfredo de Batuc, followed by a Q&A session with the artist as we discover more about his life and work.
Born in Mexico but living and working in Los Angeles since 1975, de Batuc's work is characterized by strong composition and a masterful use of color. De Batuc was an active collaborator with Self Help Graphics & Art, where he contributed to silkscreen posters and collective projects that emphasized accessible art, political consciousness, and cultural pride. This event is co-sponsored by the Mexican Cultural Institute of Los Angeles.
