Description
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 - from Amzon
