Vista L.A.
LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Exploring L.A. through a Latino lens and Latino expressions through art, food and exercise! Vista L.A.'s Patricia Lopez visits cartoonist Lala Alcaraz in his home studio, and we hit up Homegirl Caf for a local art exhibit.
Then Alysha del Valle checks out George Lopez's Chicano art collection at home. Then we meet Ozomatli lead singer Asdru Sierra who's working on a new project with Balthazar Getty, and learn about running through the streets of L.A. for the love of street art.
Lalo Alcaraz
When it comes to expressing himself through art, cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz doesn't hold anything back. His politically-themed comic strips were the first nationally syndicated Latino daily comics in the U.S. Lalo talked to Vista LA's Patricia Lopez about his passion for self-expression through art and shared a few upcoming projects.
Homeboy Art Show
Fabian Debora went from gang member to accomplished artist. Vista LA's Alysha Del Valle stopped by one of his recent art shows at Homegirl Caf, where Fabian and fellow artist Jose Ramirez shared their personal stories and the inspiration behind their art.
Abstrakto
After winning multiple Grammys with his band Ozomatli, Asdru Sierra teamed up with actor/music producer Balthazar Getty to develop a new sound. The collective known as "Abstrakto" invited Vista LA's Patricia Lopez to their home studio to listen in on how they're expressing themselves through music.
