As part of its commitment to culture, NACEX supports this charity initiative at a time when it is needed more than ever, reinterpreting its own “Meninas”, which may already be seen on the streets of Madrid.
Madrid is the setting for the third edition of “Meninas Madrid Gallery”, from the 15th of October to the 15th of December, a unique exhibition in which “Las Meninas de Velázquez” (Meninas means Maids of Honour in English) have been reinterpreted and garb the capital in the world’s biggest open-air exhibition.
NACEX, Logista’s express parcel and documentation delivery company, attended the presentation event that took place at the Madrid City Council’s “La Caja de Música”, presided by the Deputy Mayoress of Madrid, Begoña Villacís, accompanied by the Delegate for the Area of Economy, Innovation and Employment, Miguel Ángel Redondo, the Director General for Trade and the Hospitality Industry, Concha Diaz de Villegas, as well as representatives from Acotex, and different associations and businesses that, like NACEX, have become involved in this urban art exhibition.
There will be around 50 fibre-glass sculptures, 180 centimetres in height , 160 in depth and weighing 30 kilos, created by the artist Antonio Azzato, which have served as a basis for design by a group of artists such as Marta Sánchez, Asier Etxeandía, Agatha Ruíz de la Prada, Oteyza and Modesto Lomba, among other figures.
