Ribera Arts Review – September 17, 2011

Naughty but nice

Billed as the “first ever official exhibition of erotic art in Ajijic,” the work of local artist Luz Preciado is set to adorn the walls of the Ajijic Cultural Center later this month.

“Sin Tabues” (Without Taboos) opens with a cocktail reception on Saturday, September 24.

Twenty-two multi-media pop-art style works will range from the mildly titillating to the blush producing.

Also showing is Ajijic jewelry designer Jose Melendrez, who will be erecting an installation entitled “Art in the Public Bathroom.”

The exhibition has been approved by municipal authorities and remains in place until October 10. Be sure to take it in – if you dare.

Getting naked

The Naked Stage, Ajijic’s minimalist play-reading group, presents  “Death Trap” by Ira Levin on Friday, August 26; Saturday, August 27 and Sunday, August  28, 4 p.m. on each day, at Plaza de la Ribera (Formerly Sol y Luna), located on Calle Rio Bravo in west Ajijic.

Directed by Russell Mack, this Tony-nominated comedy-thriller takes a look at all the murder, thriller and horror stories to be found, then twists and rearranges the plots again and again. It’s mind-blowing but fun and funny at the same time.

In the cast are Ken Yakiwchuk, Jayme Littlejohn, Arlene Pace, Fred Koesling and Roger Larson.

Reservations are a must. Call Ann Pinkerton at 766-5986 for reservations or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The donation is 80 pesos. The play is not appropriate for children.
