Lacayo served as the Director of The Nicaraguan Film Institute (INCINE) in the 1980’s and was a founding member of the New Latin American Cinema Foundation obtaining great recognition in numerous international film festivals. He was honored with The Ruben Dario Cultural Order and obtained an honorary mention for Outstanding Citizen of Managua from the Nicaraguan Commission in 2000. As a painter, Lacayo always identified with abstract expressionism. His approach to painting has always been an intimate act done alongside with his other creative activities. During the 1990’s, Lacayo worked in total privacy perfectioning his trade. The strong influence of the New York School Movement of the 1940’s and 1950’s inspired him to paint from scratch and with fresher eyes. In 2000, he decided to bring his paintings out of the studio in a series of national and international exhibitions.
