Julio Larraz

Julio Larraz is the son of a newspaper editor and began drawing at a very early age. After moving to the United States in 1961, Larraz began to draw political caricatures that were published by The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Vogue, among others. In 1967, he turned his attention solely towards painting.

Larraz has been the recipient of many awards from the Center for the Arts and Education, New York, NY; FACE, Miami, FL; the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the National Institute of Arts and Letters, New York, NY; and Instituto de Educación Internacional, New York, NY.
