The audience has the floor
The Audience Award, sponsored by Iberia since 2015, has become the perfect leadup to the Platino Awards. With their votes, spectators choose their favourite films, series, actors, and actresses.
Talent grows when it connects so, for this reason, Iberia decided to bring together different celebrities from the world of culture and sport at Espacio Iberia. Hundreds of people attended these events to discover first-hand the creative process of actors, singers, designers, chefs or writers and where they find inspiration for their talent to take flight.
Espacio Iberia, located just a few metres from Puerta del Sol in Madrid (Calle Maestro Victoria, 3), opened its doors from the 25th of May until the 1st of July. During that time, it became a meeting point for Spanish talent. All kind of celebrities from the world of culture attended: actor Gorka Otxoa, photographer Gervasio Sánchez, designer Teresa Helbig, producer Alauda Ruiz de Azúa, chef Dabiz Muñoz, writer Elvira Lindo, designer Palomo Spain, actress Natalia Millán, world debating champion in Spanish Leonel Caschetto, former basketball player José Manuel Calderón or athletes from the Iberia Talento a bordo Team, among others.
The space also displayed the portraits of six women who work at Iberia, taken by photographer Estela de Castro, which were part of the exhibition Talento a bordo. The world needs photographers that continue to capture it. Likewise, also in collaboration with PHotoEspaña, it hosted a round table where photographers, designers and producers like Lala Serrano, Marina Meyer or Juanma Carrillo addressed the potential applications of Artificial Intelligence to different artistic fields.
