2 new GERMS artworks...

...added to the collection today.

The first one, "Taco de Ojo," is acrylic on wood panel, 24" width x 84" height:







The 2nd piece is called "Muertos de Amor," and is another iteration of his Frida Kahlo themed "Lucha Squids."

Acrylic on wood panel, framed size 9" width x 11" height.



The Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture, which will be opening on June 18, 2022, will have an extensive exhibit of Germs work, old, new and in-between. Much of my collection will be loaned to the museum for this exhibit.

The opening date for the Germs exhibition is TBD.

If you are on Instagram (I am not), you may find Germs there. Search for Jaime GERMS Zacarias.
