This book gathers the cultural spaces designed by Abraham Zabludovsky in the final years of his career: theaters, auditoriums, convention centers, and museums which constitute “a synthesis of previous experiments.” An illuminating introductory text by Miguel Adrià and Fernanda Canales glances briefly at the early years of the architect’s career, devoted to residential projects, before analyzing his monumental work in concrete –“the stone of the twentieth century,” as Le Corbusier called it–, created in collaboration with Teodoro González de León, and focusing finally on the “stage set spaces” and “cultural containers” of his final period. This books documents exhaustively, in words and images, the maturity of one of Mexico’s indispensable architects.
