Few people would not have not heard of Antonio López, the greatest living Spanish painter. While his fame derives from his paintings, it was he who designed the marble sculpture “La Mujer de Almanzora”, (“The woman of Almanzora”, in English), the highest in Spain, recently completed and installed during the summer of 2017 in Olula del Río (Almeria).
This exhibition is composed of installations developed with Italian technology around a concept defined by the designer Rafaello Galiotto. A company of the industry ties up with a design company to finalise the product. The objective, more than showing the potential of the new technologies, is to highlight the applications on a mass scale with commercial products.
The Marmomacc fair, held in Verona, organises every year under the generic name, The Italian Stone Theatre, a series of exhibitions in which designers and companies dealing with natural stone and machinery with the latest technology, all Italian, work together to demonstrate the infinite possibilities of natural stone. In the 2017 edition of the fair, in pavilion 1, three exhibitions were held- “Territory and Design", “Soul of City", and "Macchine Virtuose".
