Description
The "Puerto Vallarta Dancers" sculpture, created by Jim Demetro, was opened during the winter of 2006 on the new extension of Puerto Vallarta's Malecon, Mexico. To create the Puerto Vallarta Dancers, the artist Jim Demetro found his inspiration in the youthful energy, in the subtle movements and the colorful regional costumes that the Xiutla Municipal Folkloric Ballet wears during its shows. The Xiutla Ballet is a Mexican cultural folkloric dance organism made up of children and youth from Puerto Vallarta. It was founded in July 27, 1994, in order to offer members of our local community the opportunity to learn more about the traditions and customs of our country. The white, red and blue colors of the dress contrast with the pure bronze. The triangle-shaped base and clouds framing the backdrop often create a counterbalance that places our sights right on the sculpture.
Proceeds from the sale of this photograph goes to help orphaned and abandoned children in Colombia South America.
