On July 28th, renowned local sculptor Octavio Gonzalez welcomes abstract Mexican painter Jose Alvarez C. and Tex-Mex rocker Joe King Carrasco to his alternative art gallery in downtown Puerto Vallarta, Galeria Octavio.
Puerto Vallarta's well recognized Mexican sculptor Octavio Gonzalez has opened his alternative gallery to artists of all mediums. Presenting a continual exhibition of his own bronzes and new pieces regularly, this month he is planning a very special event.
On July 28th, Octavio will be hosting a cocktail reception for the opening of a new exhibit by Jose Alvarez C., an Mexican abstract painter with more than 25 years experience in painting and exhibiting.
Having grown up in Mexico City under the influence of his father, who also painted, Jose Alvarez C. has participated in various group and individual exhibitions. His works have been displayed at La Torre de Pemex-Instituto Mexicano del Petroleo, at the Hotel Radisson since 2004, and now he is opening his first exposition in Puerto Vallarta at Galeria Octavio Arte en Bronce.
As most of you know, Galeria Octavio is the only Puerto Vallarta art gallery that continues the tradition of celebrating the opening of new art exhibitions by hosting cocktail receptions throughout the summer season.
On the last Saturday of every month, Octavio hosts a captivating evening of culture, cocktails and camaraderie - complete with live music - for your entertainment. This month he will be presenting Joe King Carrasco.
A native to Texas, Joe King has devoted his career to recreating the Tex/Mex rock and roll sound from the 1960's. In 1979, Joe formed the group "The Crowns" and his music "Nuevo Wavo." These days, Joe's work has turned increasingly political, making it harder to find in the US. But Joe is now living and playing here in Vallarta. Don't miss his performance on the 28th of July at Galeria Octavio Arte en Bronce.
