Beschreibung
Introduces for the first time, a range of theories and methods from critical theory/cultural studies to analyse and evaluate Mexican twentieth-century architecture. These theories and methods have been used successfully to re-assess modernist architecture elsewhere, but have never before been applied to Mexican architecture. Compiles the lives and works of 13 key Mexican Modernist architects across four generations: Jose Villagran Garcia, Luis Barragan and Juan O'Gorman from the first generation; Pedro Ramirez Vazquez, Agustin Hernandez and Abraham Zabludovsky from the second; Carlos Mijares, Ricardo Legorreta and Juan Jose Diaz Infante from the third; and finally, Enrique Norten, Clara de Buen, Alberto Kalach and Javier Sordo Madaleno from the fourth generation, for the first time together in one book, illustrated with beautiful photographs of their most important work. Beautifully illustrated in full colour with over 170 plans, sections, elevations and photographs.
