Rationality, modulation, the development of detail, the use of simple forms without formal excesses and the application of adequate proportions distinguished its architecture in the forties. Drawing was an invaluable tool in the prefiguration of the building and its parts since projects were developed down to the smallest detail. 6 FÉLIX CANDELA FÉLIX CANDELA Juan Ignacio del Cueto Ruíz Funes English edition (also available in Spanish) 11,42 x 8,31 in // 29 x 21.1 cm 13.3 oz // 0.376 kg 61 pp. First edition: 2012 ISBN: 978-841-52-7223-6 Price: $ 20 USD Gobierno de España Acción Cultural Española Columbia University Facultad de Arquitectura, unam SPAIN arts & culture Catalogue of the exhibition organized in 2010 by the organism Acción Cultural Española in the Valencian Institute of Modern Art, the Museum of Modern Art in Mexico (MAM) and the Wallach Art Gallery of Coumbia University.

Fifteen years in which the “Mexican miracle” was produced: the transformation of an agricultural country into a modern one, all trough an intense process of industrialization. Along came the construction of thousands of square meters of roof structures made of laminar reinforced concrete. The advantages offered by these covers, which gave a new physiognomy to industrial architecture, allowed their use in other genres, such as religious, recreational, hospital or educational architecture. 13 T2.

It is a summary, a mirror that reflects culture, history and society’s situation that gave it life. It is an evidence of planning, an act of conscious design that cares about functionality. The Terminal 2 of the Benito Juarez International Airport in Mexico City will be recognized as an outstanding architectural work, its execution needed the impulse of the authorities, the talent and determination of hundreds of professionals formed in Mexican classrooms and of thousands of hands that with different tools wielded the construction force. 14 Editorial Team Director Salvador Lizárraga Sánchez Editor in Chief Cristina López Uribe Editorial Design Erandi Casanueva Gachuz Amarantha Aguilar Escalona Proofreading Leonardo Solórzano Sánchez Carlos Chávez Calvillo Editorial Board Pedro Camarena Berruecos Facultad de Arquitectura, UNAM Yara Colón Universidad Politécnica de Puerto Rico Marcio Cotrim Programa de Pos- Gradaçao em Arquitectura em Urbanismo, Universidade Federal da Paraiba Juan Ignacio del Cueto Coordinación de Investigación en Arquitectura, Urbanismo y Piasaje, UNAM Juan Manuel Escalante Rafael Mauleón iconos.

Reflecting upon this theme and its possible outcomes forces us to rethink many things that we usually consider ordinary. Profound changes originated with the invention of mechanical printing; this was the moment when -for the first time- information and knowledge that had until then been limited only to a few, was accesible to a greater amount of people. Later on, along with modernity, the definitive incorporation of media and its influence on everyday experience triggered a more radical shift; not only did we have at our disposal novel representation tools, but the way we saw the world changed, and the world itself was changed by the media. Avant-garde showed us many of these changes in the artistic realm. But architecture, being in a closer contact with reality, absorbed all these changes in a more disregarded way. 18 BITÁCORA 27 //ARCHITECTURE, CITY & MEDIA Table of Contents: Research: La casa de Mies: exhibicionismo y coleccionismo Beatriz Colomina Del brazo y por la calle.

We are asleep –or stunned in a world of artificial lighting that attempts to recreate daylight– most of that time in which our world experiences thousands of climatic, physical and chromatic variations. Much of the research on our cities, architecture and landscape –but also on other sciences of knowledge – focus on the world experienced during daylight. We often that to know something is to see it in the light, that those things that we do not see are those which we cannot really know. Le Corbusier said in the early twenties: "Architecture is the learned game, correct and magnificent, of forms assembled in the light". Following this assumption, we could then understand that there is no architecture at night, or that in a world without artificial lighting, architecture would depended on the moonlight to exist, but again, it would disappear in moonless nights. 20 BITÁCORA 28 //ARCHITECTURE, CITY & DARKNESS Table of Contents: Research: Los hilvanes del sastre Sistemas de techos altos en la arquitectura de Amancio Williams Luis Müllerr Caracterización de la noche metropolitana.

The creation of new theories, devises, systems and artifacts, all of them illuminated by the light of Science, redefined collective imaginary with a new perspective of society’s environment and reality. In this context, light –always present in Human Kinds’ history – was theorized, manipulated and rethought as one of the main subjects of the formal discourse of Western culture. Representations and social forms, along with its architecture and cities, were never the same again. Under the light of such ideas as progress, welfare, hygiene, security –sometimes used correctly, sometimes manipulated for the worse, but always present throughout modernity– architecture, city planning and design have played a decisive part in this development. 22 BITÁCORA 29.
