The Conceptual Family, 1995
Submitted by carolyncastano on May 6, 2009 - 3:08pm.
This early Castaño has resurfaced after a thirteen year hiatus. It was shown in my first ever painting exhibition at the Luggage Store in San Francisco circa 1995, called "Dos Painters from the Mission" with Kenneth Huerta. From there, it was bought by Rene Di Rosa who had it in his home as part of the Di Rosa Collection. The painting was inspired by a family portrait that my dad had of him and his brothers. I wanted each character to resemble Velazquez or Garcia Marquez character. Well now it's back a lovely gallery from Florida has the painting and we are trying to find a home for it. So if you have any leads me write me here.
Thanks so much!
