Throughout his career, Curro González has participated in outstanding fairs and group shows, held in art centers, museums and galleries in Spain, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Argentina, the Philippines and the United States, among other countries. He has also held solo exhibitions in important galleries throughout Spain (Fúcares in Madrid, Ciento y Fúcares in Barcelona, Fernando Latorre in Zaragoza, etc.), as well as in Lisbon, Cologne and Manila. In recent years he has had solo exhibitions at the CAAC in Seville (2010), the Pablo Gallery in Manila (2011), the DAGC in the same city (2012), the Ad Hoc in Vigo (2012) and the Rafael Ortiz in Seville (2013).
