SALVADOR DOMINGUEZ
Salvador Dominguez was born in 1985 in Zacatecas, Mexico, and grew up in Pomona, California. He now lives and works in Chicago, Illinois-where he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago–and Los Angeles, California. Like many first-generation immigrants, language is an important part of Dominguez’s narrative. Not just in terms of communication but also in its relevance within a broader contemporary American culture.
Dominquez’s work has been exhibited at de boer, Los Angeles, CA; Ralph Arnold Gallery at Loyola University, Chicago, IL; Walker Art Gallery, Garnett, KS; National Museum of Mexican Art, Chicago, IL; Carroll University, Waukesha, WI; DePaul Art Museum, Chicago, IL; Lubeznik Center for the Arts, Michigan City, IN among others.
