Barragan... Not only a photogenic architect!
14 Jun 2000
Format:Hardcover
Martinez write a very interesting books comparing to others about barragan... The reason is that beside beautiful pictures (they are also wonderful in this books), we can understand the context: artistic, geographic or politics, which make evolve his architecture, At the end of the books there are a full chronological list of his project with text and photography.
