    In 1982 Marcos López received a grant from the Fondo Nacional de las Artes and abandoned his engineering studies in order to dedicate himself fully to photography. In Buenos Aires he came into contact with artists from other disciplines and participated in various projects encompassing video, advertising photography and magazine work. His work has been exhibited internationally, including the Museum of Photography, Charleroi and ICP, New York. His work is held in many institutions including Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Buenos Aires and Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid.

    Toluca Éditions is a publishing house founded 15 years ago in Paris by Alexis Fabry and Olivier Andreotti. Each project is the result of an intimate collaboration among artist, writer and designer and is presented in a custom-made box.
