Salomón Huerta

Salomón Huerta

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Huerta was born in Tijuana, Mexico 1965. 
He is currently 49 years old, and worked at Paulson Bott Press.
He moved to LA to study art and went to both UCLA and Art Center.

Below is some of Huerta’s earlier work from the late 90’s.

The pieces are lithographs. Lithography is an extremely common printing technique that involves transferring ink from a polymer plate onto paper.
 Above are two of Huerta's series with several prints of different colors of: the backs of heads and simple suburban architecture.

I love Huerta's work for its cleanliness and simplicity, and for the skill of printing and choice of color that results in soft yet vibrant prints.
