Technical means and skill.

At the Artistic Platform J.L.Ponce we understand well the enormous advantage of technical means. We know it because of the decades we have spent working with manual cranes to produce huge monuments, depending always on our effort and ingenuity. Fortunately nowadays all of our facilities are equipped with remote cranes that allow us to carry out any big format sculpture […]

Una primera edición en bronce

El paso de los siglos acaba con casi todo, especialmente con el papel impreso de una tirada de periódico. Quizá por eso el Heraldo de Aragón decidió encargarnos una reproducción en bronce de su primera edición que nos sobreviviera a todos para conmemorar el 125 aniversario de su publicación .
