DEVOTA&LOMBA, MIGUEL MARINERO, JORGE VÁZQUEZ, MAYA HANSEN y ULISES MÉRIDA dialogan en los escaparates con las creaciones de seis […]

“Manifestation of enthusiasm at some point in a celebration or collective act”. That’s ‘apotheosis’ in its second acceptation in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE).
