Art opens the doors to new worlds, new stories, incredible possibilities, and experiences sensitizes the senses, and exalts talents and values that reflect the best of human beings. Art also opens doors to help those who need it, as demonstrated by the Grupo Andrade Foundation, in alliance with ExFábrica MX, in its new initiative Abriendo Puertas, to raise funds to buy prostheses for girls and boys with retinoblastoma (eye cancer) treated at the Mexican Association to Help Children with Cancer (AMANC).
Until now, the project has attracted the participation of thirty-two urban artists who created upon doors donated by the Ex Fábrica mx. These will be displayed and sold on-site to achieve the project goal.
Each door will tell a story through different artistic techniques and styles. Some of the artists who will show their talent and solidarity are Héctor Manjarrez, Perla Crespo, Hesner Sánchez, Alan Bonder, Veneno Ríos, Phon, Mother Monkey, Alejandro Pérez Alvarado, known as Pinpon, Adriana Riolo, la Chilanga, Isabel Moctezuma, Antonio Troncoso, Perla Crespo, Alan Bonder, Celeste Bejarano, Molén Antolin, Sara Sánchez, Ale Santana, Karla Alvarez, Steph Bunt, Camila Sanchez, Celeste Bejarano, Keops, Fermont, Hesner, among others.
María de Guadalupe Alejandre Castillo, Director and Founder of Amanc, Cristina Mieres, President of the Grupo Andrade Foundation, and Blanca Becerril, journalist from Heraldo Televisión, hosted the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The exhibition and sale will take place from September 13 to October 6 at the facilities of the ExFábricamx located at Calle Primavera 106, Tacuba, Miguel Hidalgo in Mexico City.
Abriendo Puertas is an initiative by Grupo Andrade Foundation, a Private Assistance Institution whose objective is to improve the quality of life of girls and boys in high social vulnerability cared for in Civil Society Organizations.
