This piece is part of the project Meninas Madrid Gallery 2024. This initiative is being repeated this year as it began in April 2018 as part of the Madrid Capital of Fashion project, organized by the Madrid City Council in collaboration with the Business Association of Textile Trade and Accessories (ACOTEX), is part of Madrid Capital of Fashion. The iconic image of Velázquez's Meninas is transferred to the streets of Madrid, in a clear tribute to diversity and freedom of expression through contemporary art. The project is directed by the artist Antonio Azzato, who has made the fiberglass sculptures 180 centimeters high, 130 centimeters deep and weighing about 30 kilos. The Meninas have been designed by the artist Antonio Azzato and subsequently reinterpreted by a cast of creators ranging from artists to musicians, actors and fashion designers. Based on the question "What is Madrid for you?", established and emerging artists, celebrities and creatives in general, have put their ideas into practice, creating each sculpture with an individual message that, together, will help to unveil the infinite Velázquez message. Azzato has defined the project as "a tribute to diversity" and "to a city that welcomes everyone". The artist insists that it is important for cities to make art accessible to the people and says that with his work he wants people to get closer to museums. For this reason he has been responsible for coordinating the project, due to his great interest in urban art and the work of Velázquez. Which he has been studying for more than a decade, in which he has managed to bring a new artistic life to the economic image of Velázquez, turning them into transcendental works, which are now established as a symbol of the heritage of Madrid.
