On February 2, 2011 MAIZ and WaterSongs tapestry exhibitions were formally opened at the Peter Gray Museo, CUC campus, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Many of the MAIZ weavers were present for the opening including Gabriel Canales of Guadalajara, Mexico who had several pieces in the show. It was a great turn out of visiting tourists as well as local artists and weavers. Each participating artist was acknowledged with a gift of a book from the museo. Jean Pierre Larochette and Yael Lurie showed several new tapestries of their watersongs series as well as very large tapestries woven several years ago. The space captured the essence of these large pieces and showed them off exquisitely. Jean Pierre, Sarah Swett and Gabriel Canales all gave talks about the tapestries. This exhibition runs from January 25 to March 5, 2011. Everyone is welcome to come and see the wide variety of tapestries. Thanks to the sponsors of the museo and to Jean Pierre and Yael for this wonderful exhibition.
