The Dallas artist has been hailed by museums and galleries across the country.
Catch Francisco Moreno's newest exhibition while you can. The artist is about to become another Dallas export.Some of the most successful creatives in Dallas reside in the Exposition Park neighborhood. The 4000 block of Commerce Street is home to loft studios, a boutique coffee shop, several world class-musicians and artists of all types. One of them is Dallas-based painter Francisco Moreno.
“At the root of all of my work, I am interested in works that are slow and consume oneself," Moreno says."I almost feel like I want to give more than what is asked of me because that’s the work I like seeing myself.” “I went to Italy for the first time and had been working predominantly in black and white," Moreno says."After going to Rome and seeing all the frescoes of the Renaissance, I wanted to paint in color. I also wanted to start painting mythological narrative paintings, or history paintings.”
“I think it’s cool when galleries bring artists from other places, but you can’t really foster a community that way," Fitzsimmons says. "We first saw his work atand then fast-forward many months and a client based in Dallas sent me his work. I chose Francisco because his work fit the idea of the show, and I just got lucky.
