She was the first woman to hold a solo show at the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes, which was quite successful. Two of her other notable exhibitions include a retrospective of her art at the Mexican Cultural Institute of New York, and a solo show titled "An Interpretation of the Holocaust" at the Houston Holocaust Museum.
