Antonio Lechuga is a multidisciplinary artist who was born [1985] in Dallas, TX where he currently lives and works. He attended Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) in Los Angeles, CA.


Antonio’s practice focuses on the intersection of art, design, architecture and social change. He uses a varied visual language of materials and processes to discuss and investigate his culture and existence; both his existence and experiences as a Tejano living in the 21st century and it’s constant battle with the erasure of that history.

Antonio uses the current condition of today’s political climate to inform and guide his work. Through investigations, research and new technologies Antonio begins to piece together new narratives of a future for the Mexican-American of the Texas region while emphasizing and highlighting its rich, deep and turbulent past.

He has exhibited work both nationally and internationally but most previously at many regional Dallas-Fort Worth institutions including 500X Gallery, the Geometric MADI Museum, Arts Fort Worth, Craighead Green Gallery, Ro2 Art Gallery, ArtRoom and Love Texas Art Gallery. He has had solo exhibitions in 2022 at Love Texas Art Gallery, Fort Worth, TX, in 2023 at the Oak Cliff Cultural Center, Dallas, TX, early 2024 at Daisha Board Gallery, Dallas, TX and Various Small Fires - Dallas (2024). He currently has a solo exhibition titled Flowers for the Living - 2022 and the Latino Cultural Center in Dallas, TX. Antonio’s work is part of the permanent collections of the Dallas Museum of Art and private collections across the U.S.
