Digital Exhibition: Diego Gutman

Through the years the St. Agnes Library has featured many local artist’s exhibitions. It has become something our patrons look forward to seeing with each visit. With our temporary closure due to COVID-19, we want to share artists' work so that everyone can experience some beauty in their life.

From Diego Gutman:

I’m from New York City and grew up there during the 90’s. If you ask my mom I was always into art. Whether it was spray painting or photography, it was always a part of me. Growing up in New York City, art was everywhere. Everything caught my eye, so naturally I tried to imitate what I saw. That was the beginning of my love for art. In the 2000s I began to skate and my dad gave me his old camera. I would go around taking pictures. In high school I took photography classes and learned the basics. My art is mostly influenced by New York City artists along with developing ideas from watching movies and television. Additionally, some skate companies in the 2000s influenced my artwork as well. My love for art has led me to start obtaining my degree in art education so that I can share my love of art with the youth. When I’m not making art, I am going on adventures with my fiancé, playing soccer, and spending time with family.
