He studied at the Escuela de artes plásticas in Caracas from 1942 to 1947 and then served as director of the Escuela de bellas artes in Maracaibo, Venezuela, until 1950, at which time he moved to Paris. There he associated with Yaacov Agam, Jean Tinguely, and Victor Vasarely, as well as artists connected to Galerie Denise René and the Nouveau Réalistes (New Realists). Having started out as an illusionistic painter, in 1955 Soto participated in Le mouvement (The Movement) at Galerie Denise René, the exhibition that effectively launched Kinetic art.

  • Beverly Hills Golden Hour
    By Kristin Moore
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Born and raised in Houston, KRISTIN MOORE began attending art classes at the Glassell School at a young age. She moved to Austin in 2009 to obtain her BA in Art from St. Edward’s University. Soon after graduating, Moore moved to Los Angeles to pursue her MFA at Otis College of Art + Design. Moore’s first solo exhibition, Rear Window, was unveiled during the culmination of her participation in the MFA program in 2016. Upon moving back to Texas, Moore continued to explore contemporary landscapes through painting. The juxtaposed architecture of LA, the smoggy atmosphere, and unique characteristics of the city became source material for her work. Upon moving back to Texas in 2016, Moore viewed Austin through the same lens; the architecture is quickly changing, a new atmosphere is emerging, and the skyline is directly reflecting those elements. Oscillating between these two bustling cities of Austin & LA, lies the open space and peaceful landscape of Marfa. Texas. Often a favorite pit stop during the long road trips back and forth from Texas to California, Marfa holds space as a source of continued inspiration for Moore. Her Texas roots and California influence have culminated into her current body of work. Often inspired by Ed Ruscha’s work Every Building on the Sunset Strip and A Few Palm Trees, Moore sources the images that influence her paintings from her many car rides, walks, and hikes up to overlooks. A homage to Hollywood, Moore also finds visual influence for her work in the world of film; particularly from visionaries such as Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott, and Alfred Hitchcock. Her work has been featured in group exhibitions such as Turbulent Landscapes at Modified Arts in Phoenix, AZ, Excavations; Shindig at Mantle Art...
