At LaCa Projects: Leandro Manzo: Eternal

Leandro Manzo with his work Hallelujah: Requiem in white and black series

We were honored to visit LaCa for a reception for artist Leandro Manzo during his amazing exhibit of ink and pigment on paper and oils on canvas. The fire and smoke of his work arouses passion and is volatile, erotic yet calming and visually has its own spirit. 

Samba: Tables series

If you love color you can’t get enough of the way he plays his color on canvas and paper. “Samba” and Vertigo” were two of my favorites, envisioning them on the very high walls in my home to enjoy every day, maybe one day.


Vertigo: Tables series
The space is beautifully thought out, the art was impeccably hung and the lighting was perfect. Food and wine was flowing, ran into old friends and made a few new ones. Love the art in this town and how lovingly it brings people together.
