Felix Lazo

Félix Lazo is a visual artist and musician. He has now returned to painting as his main discipline in order to question and review the development of abstract painting. Somewhere he read that in old Indian philosophy, the created universe was a vibrating and pulsating sound, where every living creature contributes with its own unique characteristics to this huge and overwhelming music. Being that music is Lazo’s first language, he applies musical concepts to his visual works, like rhythm, pitch, chromatics, tension, chords, tuning and other more unconscious and unnamable, obscure, parameters. His aim is to produce a visual-sound that resonates in the body of the observer.

Lazo was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship from Colombia University where he earned a MA at the Teacher’s College of Columbia University. He has exhibited in venues around the world such as the Museum of Contemporary Art, Santiago, Chile, Marlborough Gallery, Santiago, Chile, Goethe Institut, Santiago, Chile, AC Institute, New York, La Guardia Performance Center, Queens, New York, and Joyce Yahouda Gallery, Montreal, Simma, and Dialogue Galleries in Marcella, France.
