Pantera Onca on Sixth Avenue

Pantera Onca is the scientific name of the jaguar, but also a song by our friends from Viernes Verde. 

On may 27th the city opened an exhibition title Jaguars on the Sixth. It is the fourth pride of Jaguars that decor a pedestrian street that goes from  Paseo Jocotenango to Paseo de La Sexta. These sculptures are based on the cast made by our friend and well know sculpture Max Leiva.

The purpose is to use them as canvases for young talented artist to express themselves. According to Max the original plan was more ambitious and tried to cover the different high traffic spots in the city. Instead of the whole city they less and scattered along this pedestrian street. This year the invitees are:

1. Gabriel Rodriguez Pellecer, "Nearsighted" 
2. Lourdes de la Riva, "Phantom"
3. Soft, "Animal Fluorescence"
4. Arturo Monroy, "Guatemala Jaguar"
5. Alejandro Azurdia, "Gold and silver rain"
