In her late 90’s, Venezuelan artist Luchita Hurtado attained the kind of art world ‘rock stardom’ that eluded her most of her life. On the eve of her 100th birthday, she was honored with the first major retrospective of her work at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Nikki talks to LACMA curator Jennifer King about Luchita’s kaleidoscopic life and art.
