Curating exhibitions often goes hand in hand with the scenography of routes designed to appeal to all audiences and to provoke thought.

In his art exhibitions, he also seeks to develop innovative scenographies showing great creators in a new light. This is the case with artists such as Marc Chagall - between dreams and memories, Henri Matisse - towards the simplicity of line and form, The Surrealist Spark - the role of the surrealist image, Joan Miro - beyond painting, Pablo Picasso - the illustrator, or Impressionism - the role of the female artist.
