September 19, 2013

The artistic side of cement is soon to be revealed in an exhibition by one of Argentina’s leading contemporary artists, Adrián Villar Rojas to be shown at the Serpentine Sackler Gallery in Kensington Gardens , London from 28th September 2013.

CEMEX UK has supplied 4 tonnes Rugby Portland Cement for the creation of the exhibits that will  fill Villar Rojas’ exhibition in  this new Gallery designed by Zaha Hadid Architects. Villar Rojas is well known for his large scale works which often use building materials such as cement, clay and brick.

The excellent and versatile properties of cement can be seen all around us in our built environment helping to build a greater Britain, the exhibition will show us some of its artistic side.
