Art at the airport

“Mangroves and Beyond,” a joint exhibit of works by painter Carlos Hiller and sculptor Tony Jiménez, will soon greet visitors arriving at the new terminal of Daniel Oduber International Airport in Liberia, capital of the northwestern province of Guanacaste.

The artwork is already installed in the Liberia-based Hidden Garden Art Gallery’s exhibit space inside the new terminal, and awaits only the opening of the doors. The scheduled Nov. 17 unveiling of the new terminal was delayed, however, with a new date yet to be announced.
