Produktbeschreibung
Mexican architecture of the 20th century was influenced by two generations who were active in Guadalajara in the 1920s/30s and 1980/90s. Luis Barragán started his career in Guadalajara, working on a style much different from his better-known work in Mexico City. There, he practiced briefly as part of a generation of architects known as the Escuela Tapatia, a group that produced an architecture based on an abstracted and stylized reinterpretation of the vernacular architecture of the region. The generation of young architects that started to work in the 1980/90s again took up this idea as a basis for their architectural language, producing their own reinterpretation fifty years later. Through selected projects and critical texts, this book tells the stories of these two generations. Contributing authors: Claudia Rueda and Isabela de Rentería.
