Puerto Vallarta’s Lorena Ochoa Sculpture in Restoration

The Lorena Ochoa bronze sculpture has been removed from the Malecón in Puerto Vallarta and returned to the sculpting studios of creator Octavio González Gutiérrez for restoration, part of the city’s maintenance plans this summer.

The “Lorena Ochoa” sculpture was created by the artist Octavio Gonzalez Gutierrez to recognize her sporting career and role in holding high the name of Puerto Vallarta as the Tourism Ambassador of Jalisco.

In December, 2012, Lorena Ochoa, accompanied by government and tourism authorities, came to unveil her sculpture on the new extension of the Malecon.
