Arquitetura e crítica na América Latina

The book by Josep Maria Montaner investigates the lines of architecture criticism in Latin America, highlighting Brazil. Focusing on the most representative authors, the author addresses two main issues: how the legitimacy of modern architecture in each country has consolidated from a local reality and how against the historic background of European and American proposals, and how it has evolved and outweighed historical buildings and theoretical positions. The book is complemented with the analysis of 21important texts by noted Latin American critics: Edmundo O'Gorman, Lina Bo Bardi, Carlos Raul Villanueva, Marina Waisman, Enrique Browne, Cristian Fernández Cox, Roberto Fernández, Jorge Francisco Liernur, Carlos Eduardo Comas and Ruth Verde Zein, amongst others.
