Salvador De Regil Art

Mexican, 1914-1968

Salvador de Regil was represented by the famous Julien Levy Gallery in NYC and 1941 had a solo exhibit. When Julien Levy died in 1981 the gallery archives were donated to the Art Institute of Chicago. During World War II, de Regil worked in Texas painting glass eyes for blinded soldiers. After the war, he settled in the Bay Area, where he painted and taught. De Regil designed the popular restaurant and watering hole Tiburon Tommies, which was a favorite of all the artists of the area. He was also associated with The Art League of California (no longer in existence) and at least one catalog has his photo. He participated in their professional continuing education series. There are also records of him in the Museum of Modern Art Department of Painting and Sculpture. He moved to Laguna Beach in the early 1960s. In 1968, he died and was buried in Lake Forest, California. He was married twice and has one daughter. Information provided by Wendy Weigman.
