"Luis Barragán is an icon of contemporary architecture - a genius of color, light, walls, the garden, the tower, the rooftop, he has influenced an entire generation of current architects, not least of them his one-time collaborator Ricardo Legorreta. Admirers of his work note its serenity, its harmony. In 1979, when Barragán was presented the Pritzker Prize, his work was referred to as "a sublime act of the poetic imagination." It is this aspect of Barragán's work that is presented in The Life and Work of Luis Barragán, a biographical portrait that reveals Barragán as a master of what he himself called "emotional architecture." Barragán's impressions and influences are recorded here, from his early years in Gudalajara to his work in Mexico City, and his highly inspiring travels in the Alhambra, the villages of Greece, and northern Africa. His rejection of the concepts of Le Corbusier and the International Style, and his embrace of the ideas of the French intellectual, painter, and landscape architect Ferdinand Bac provided valuable framework for understanding both the theory and form of Barragán's oeuvre. Brilliant color photographs record Barragán's vibrant work as it has never been seen before, including generous interior shots of such varied projects as Casa Cristo in Guadalajara, and Casas Galvez, Egerstrom, and Meyer, all from his Mexico City years. Barragán was perhaps first and foremost a landscape architect, and this book spotlights his gardens, and his vanguard, landscape-based approach to architecture itself-centered on the close relationship between landscape, color, and architecture in Mexico and the other lands that inspired him. Text and photographs combine in The Life and Work of Luis Barragán for a personal and evocative portrayal of the Mexican master that will fascinate everyone familiar with his legacy, and intrigue those who are only just discovering the power and influence of his work."--Book jacket.

Many books cover the sublime forms and colors of Luis Barragan's architecture - its visual aspect - yet are silent on his education and development as an architect, his methods and his theories. Luis Barragan: Mexico's Modern Master, 1902-1988 is the first in-depth study of the architect and his work. It also includes a great number of exquisite visual representations, thereby presenting a complete treatment of Barragan that enhances an understanding of the equally poetic and architectonic nature of his work and places him within the historical and political context of Mexico. The author portrays the myriad influence on the young Barragan: early trips to the United States and Europe, where he became acquainted with some of his most important and lasting models, Le Corbusier, Frederick Kiesler, Jose Clemente Orozco, and above all, Ferdinand Bac; the strong sense of identity of the tapatios, natives of his home city of Guadalajara; and his circle of contemporaries, all in the arts, all committed to discussing and publicizing new social and artistic ideas. Barragan's early works synthesized many of these elements, and a quality of "Mediterraneanism" was their strongest characteristic. This monograph also features the most extensive documentation available on Barragan. In addition to photographs and architectural drawings of his best-known projects, it features a myriad of previously unpublished photographs, an extensive illustrated list of over sixty built and unbuilt works, and a complete register of projects.

Mexican architect Luis Barragan (1902-88) was one of the twentieth centurys most creative designers and one of its best-known architects. Self-taught, he achieved international renown for his remarkable personal artistic vision. Using vegetation, water, primary geometric forms, and vivid colors, Barragan created a poetic and painterly yet elegantly simple architectural style that transformed the Mexican building tradition into an abstract architectural language. This revised edition of our best-selling monograph the first comprehensive compilation of Barragans work (102 buildings and 12 additional projects) contains new photographs and an updated bibliography. Its intelligent analyses and superb illustrations demonstrate the complexity and scope of this genius, as both an architect and a landscape designer. Barragan The Complete Works collects over 300 illustrations including Barragans drawings; photographs of his work; re-drawn plans, elevations, and scale models of important projects; texts by Alvaro Siza, Antonio Toca, and J. M. Buendia, as well as an essay by Barragan himself; and an unabridged transcription of his Pritzker Prize acceptance speech. this book is the essential compendium on the work of this great master architect.

Humberto Spíndola envisages operating the architecture of Luis Barragan with his work on paper plant of China. The aim is to restore dialogue between the painter Chucho Reyes Ferreira, who gave the color palette to the work of Luis Barragan andBarragan's architecture. The author states that this dialogue, which resulted in the color barraganiana architecture was based on the use of Chinese paper (tissue paper, papier de soie) material in which the maestro Chucho Reyes painted hisextensive work. This book is a catalog of the exhibition at the Humberto Spíndola Luis Barragan's house and other housesof his own. And it contains presentations of the work of the distinguished Spíndola art and architecture critics: Jorge AlbertoManrique, Lilly Kassner and Miquel Adria.
