Course Description
From the CTY Course Catalog (2008):
In this course, students examine pre-Colombian Mayan and Aztec architecture in Mexico, the introduction of European architecture to Mexico and the development of Mexican architecture from the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. The works of contemporary Mexican architects are examined, including the creations of architects like Luis Barragan, the winner of the Pritzker Prize, the top prize in architecture. Students learn how architecture has shaped both public and private spaces in Mexico and the interplay of art, politics and architecture over the centuries.
