Utopía de cristal

7 papers presented at the simposium "Arquitectura y Percepción" in 2005. The emphasis was on architecture of the 1960's and 1970's.

A man (evidently the architect Mies van der Rohe), stands in a room in a glass-and-steel building. This is the scene that author Ricardo Daza uses for his investigation into the man, the room, the building, and what the architect is looking at. Looking for Mies unfolds like a detective novel, complete with deductions, revelations, and conclusions about the architect's work. This fascinating study of van der Rohe is illustrated with 160 duotones.
