Mario Testino opens cultural center in Peru

Famed photographer Mario Testino opened a cultural center in Lima,Peru on Friday.

The cultural center, Mate, will celebrate Peruvian artists and feature the world's largest collection of Testino's photography.

"I wanted to give back to my country and I figure the best way that I can do this is by giving back through culture," Testino told Vogue UK. "We have many ideas for supporting and working with Mate and we hope soon to be announcing some plans."

The center's first exhibit, Todo O Nada, will open on July 27.
