Roberto Lugo makes art about his experiences growing up Puerto Rican in Philadelphia.

Roberto Lugo discovered the art of pottery in his early 20s. It led him to college and a wildly successful career making pots that draw on the history of ceramics and his own background as a Puerto Rican kid growing up in Philadelphia. Now he has work at the Metropolitan and Philadelphia Museums of Art, and a new show at Grounds for Sculpture.
