Architopia: towards sustainable architecture

At ART U READY, dissemination is very important. With the special collaboration of Acciona, we present the exhibition Arquitopía by Sergio Femar.

ART U READY made a call to action with the exhibition Arquitopía by artist Sergio Femar, who creates works of great beauty from recovered construction waste. In parallel to Femar, Acciona presented an exhibition of contemporary pieces of street furniture made with 3D printers. We were privileged to have the collaboration of a world leader in sustainability and innovation.
