No stranger to working with architects, artists, and designers alike, Arca commissioned both established and emerging Mexican artists to utilize their marble to create new works, which presented during Design Miami and Art Basel 2021. As described by Founder and CEO Gerardo Jose Cortina Weichers, “Natural stone is a material where there is a lot of variation; we are a company whose DNA is focused on helping artists, designers, and architects achieve their visions.”
