Night Magic (Blue Jester)
oil on canvas, 1988

CARLOS ALMARAZ was a charismatic Mexican American artist who is just now getting the recognition he deserves 30 years after his death. The Getty family is working with the Los Angeles County Museum of Art to present a major retrospective in 2017. It will take that long to curate because much of Carlos’ work has been difficult to locate. Thankfully collectors like Cheech Marin will donate pieces for the exhibition.
