Guatemalan Art Exhibit: Albino Pérez Yojcóm

Join us at the Shrine for a captivating art exhibit featuring the works of renowned Guatemalan painter Albino Pérez Yojcóm. This exciting event will take place on Monday, October 7, from 2 PM to 5 PM, offering attendees the opportunity to experience the vibrant and textured "bird’s eye view" art style native to San Juan La Laguna, Sololá. This unique style, characterized by its rich textures and vivid colors, is a testament to the beautiful landscapes that inspire Guatemalan artists.

Albino Pérez Yojcóm, a self-taught artist, began his artistic journey at the start of this century under the guidance of his older brother. His dedication to the visual arts has earned him recognition across Latin America, including awards like the 2020 Arte de Manson Virtual Art Gallery Award in Tijuana, Mexico, and the 2019 XII Latin American Congress of Art and Culture in Meta Villavicencio, Colombia.

Light refreshments will be available throughout the event. This exhibit is proudly sponsored by Tyler Media, Deanna Cardenas, Lucy Fusselman & Lili Valle, The Asociación de Guatemaltecos Unidos de Oklahoma, and The Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine & Museum.
