Please welcome us in joining Eugenio Salazar Castro @salazeug this Friday, October 2nd at the Joan Flasch Artists Book Collection for the second discussion in BRIDGES.

BRIDGES is an artist talk series hosted by the Latin American Student Society that advances critical discourse surrounding contemporary artists and cultural production. The series brings emerging Latine artists into conversation with students and broader campus communities, creating an interdisciplinary forum for examining the personal, social, cultural, and political contexts that shape artistic practice.

Eugenio Salazar Castro (BFA 2026) is a Mexican artist and activist based in Chicago, IL whose painting practice aims to provide a more critical and meaningful explanation of things. He served as Director of Marketing and Communications for SITE Galleries for two years before graduating from SAIC in Spring ‘26. He has exhibited across the Midwest and is currently involved with various workers’ and tenants’ rights organizations in Chicago. taken in Joan Flasch Artists' Book Collection by @salazeug

Headline paintings Mar 3 - 10, 2026

The lies and excuses and indifferences offered in response to the mass killing and degradation of the most vulnerable people in the world is profoundly disappointing. I cannot place enough distance between myself and these cataclysmic political events and power struggles to pursue my own personal concerns. Having a guilty conscience about it doesn’t make me better than anyone, and making art about it isn’t exactly noble, but painting the truth makes me feel a little less helpless. by @salazeug
