Summary

"Mexican architect Luis Barragan (1902-88) was one of the twentieth century's most creative designers and one of its best-known architects. Winner of, among other awards, the Pritzker Prize in 1980 and the Premio America in 1987, he achieved international renown for his remarkable personal artistic vision." "This revised edition of Barragan: The Complete Works covers his complete oeuvre - 199 documented works and projects - as architect and landscape architect, and contains new plans and photographs, a new essay, and an updated bibliography. It collects over 400 illustrations, including Barragan's drawings; photographs of his work; redrawn plans, elevations, and scale models of important projects; texts by Alvaro Siza, Antonio Toca, J.M. Buendia, and A. Fernandez Alba as well as an essay by Barragan himself; and an unabridged transcription of his Pritzker Prize acceptance speech."--Jacket.
