Exhibition: Vallarta Style

This exhibition celebrates the early artists of Puerto Vallarta and from their origin. The common art language of the inhabitants of Puerto Vallarta, it’s a visual compendium of their roots and genealogy, as well as a chronicle of their history and their time. It’s an artistic style whose beginning appeared between the solitude of a rural town and the uniqueness of its people, before opening up to the contact and cultural interchange with other parts of the world. Today, this art has become fundamental to the cultural identity of Vallarta people.
