    Talento Bilingüe de Houston (TBH) brings artist Lizbeth Ortiz and her exhibit, Raíces de mi Corazon to the TBH gallery. Her exhibition will be displayed from December 3rd through February 26th here at TBH. A free reception will take place December 3rd from 6pm-8pm where the public will have the opportunity to meet the artist and ask questions. The exhibition can be viewed Monday through Friday from 9:00am to 5:00pm.

    Ms. Ortiz, a graduate from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, has been recognized by many for her style of recycling materials and incorporating them into various modeling pastes and gels which she uses for her art. She began her solo exhibitions in 2001 with a “Dia de los Muertos” exhibit honoring the people killed during 9-11. This exhibit would be the first of many solo exhibits to come.

    As a member of the National Association of Latino Arts and Culture, Ms. Ortiz has been privileged to work with artists such as Amalia Mesa-Bains and Delilah Montoya. Ms. Ortiz’s latest accomplishment has been being named the Official Artist of the 2008 Latin Grammy Awards by the Latin Recording Academy. Ms. Ortiz’s art graced the cover of the 2008 Latin Grammy Awards invitation, show tickets, posters and program books.

    “I strive to inspire my community through my canvas and paintbrush…”

    This organization Talento Bilingüe de Houston is funded in part by a grant from the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. This project is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts.
