Download or read book Cruz Ortiz written by Antonio Cruz and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 1996-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most prominent of a new generation of Spanish architects, this Seville-based team has transformed the practice of architecture with the theory that "a building should explain itself." Through a language of industrial materials, Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz demonstrate their technological prowess while at the same time creating simple geometries expressive of a spare modernism. Their work displays a remarkable ability to fuse the traditional architecture of their native Seville with the novelty of their abstract explorations of form. Works presented include Seville's Santa Justa Train Station, the Madrid Community Sports Stadium, the Huelva Bus Station, and a Housing Estate project in Tharsis. Cruz/Ortiz also contains a complete chronology of buildings and projects and an introduction by Rafael Moneo. The monograph documents the team's impressive work through numerous photographs and drawings, accompanied by project descriptions and commentary. Cruz and Ortiz are the recipients of the First National Prize for Spanish Architecture. Their work has been exhibited internationally

  • Publisher : UNC Press Books
  • Release : 2013-10-14
  • ISBN : 1469608847
  • Pages : 407 pages

Download or read book Eating Puerto Rico written by Cruz Miguel Ortíz Cuadra and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available for the first time in English, Cruz Miguel Ortiz Cuadra's magisterial history of the foods and eating habits of Puerto Rico unfolds into an examination of Puerto Rican society from the Spanish conquest to the present. Each chapter is centered on an iconic Puerto Rican foodstuff, from rice and cornmeal to beans, roots, herbs, fish, and meat. Ortiz shows how their production and consumption connects with race, ethnicity, gender, social class, and cultural appropriation in Puerto Rico. Using a multidisciplinary approach and a sweeping array of sources, Ortiz asks whether Puerto Ricans really still are what they ate. Whether judging by a host of social and economic factors--or by the foods once eaten that have now disappeared--Ortiz concludes that the nature of daily life in Puerto Rico has experienced a sea change.

Book excerpt: Street violence in Mexico’s tourist areas follow a 1990 financial meltdown, brought to life through two Americans left behind after a major evacuation effort by the U.S. Navy. These Americans tell their story of escape, integrating involvement by US. Navy personnel, The White House, the Mexican government, a middle class Mexican family together with a radical and unstable Mexican professor who seeks a new Mexico. Financial crisis is almost a regular event in Latin America but this differs from most, spinning out of control, bringing together a political crisis to the White House, international conflict with a Mexican governor, and on through the respective armies, to Mexicans and Americans caught up in the ensuing violence. Common Americans and Mexicans, each with their own personal stories to tell, illustrate the quick effect that politics can have on ordinary citizens. Ultimately, the crisis is resolved in major part due to the insights and unusual bravery of Americans and Mexicans. The President, military leadership, U.S. Navy initiatives, street violence, recession, romance and legal punishment are all a part of The Mexican Incident.
