The renovated Tomiño House of Culture opens its doors next Friday, November 6th, with the exhibition «Antúnez. Materia, forma e territorio», a tribute to sculptor José Antúnez Pousa.

The exhibition, which can be visited from 8:00 PM, showcases the work of the artist from Estás, known for his stone work and his connection of creation to landscape and tradition.
Antúnez Pousa, born in Estás in 1945 into a family of stonemasons, used granite as his primary material, exploring its artistic possibilities through curves, voids, and textures. His sculptures seek movement and expressiveness, always maintaining a strong connection to Galician culture and landscape.
The exhibition places Antúnez Pousa's work within the artistic context of Tomiño, a municipality with significant cultural heritage built by generations of sculptors, painters, and artisans.
The building, a former cinema, resumes its cultural activities after rehabilitation works focused on improving usability and energy efficiency, including interventions on the building envelope, climate control, and acoustic insulation.
