Jud Hogan Art Talk

Jud Hogan: Chasing Light | Art Talk at VEFA Gallery

Date: 10/22/2025 from 6:30–9 PM

Location: VEFA Gallery at 21825 Hawthorne Blvd, Torrance, CA 90503

Every sunset tells a story, and Jud Hogan has spent a lifetime learning to listen.
One of VEFA Gallery’s most beloved and best-selling artists, Hogan is known for his spellbinding photographs of the Pacific horizon, captured in the fleeting minutes when the day exhales its last light.

From his usual post at Rat Beach, Hogan positions himself at the water’s edge, camera leveled precisely with the horizon, waiting for that exact instant when the ocean turns liquid gold. His work transforms these everyday miracles into microcosms of refraction, motion, and emotion, splitting light and water into geometric poetry.

Join us for an intimate Art Talk where Jud takes us inside his process, from the technical patience of capturing an “ejection vector” at the breaking point of a wave, to the instinctive artistry behind transforming physics into feeling. Learn why collectors can’t get enough of his photographs, and what it truly means to chase the horizon.
