Barragán Outside Barragán: The Staging of Spaces, of life

A journey through books, trips, exhibitions and friendships

Fernanda Canales

Barragán Foundation & Vitra Design Museum, 2025

€22,50

This publication is based on an illustrated lecture presented by architect and historian Fernanda Canales in June 2024 at the Vitra Design Museum, as part of the Barragán Lec-ture series. It focuses on the Mexican architect Luis Barragán (1902-1988), whose work occupies a permanent place in the canon of twentieth-century architecture and continues to fascinate architectural scholars, connoisseurs and enthusiasts. In her lecture, Fernanda Canales deftly interwove Barragán´s biography with his major built works, which are characterised by a skilful approach to spatial and chromatic atmospheres and environments. Following the traces found in his extensive private library, his travels, the exhibitions he saw and his per-sonal and professional friendships, she took the audience on a multifaceted journey through space and time, providing a concentrated overview of Barragán´s creative work from the late 1920s to the 1980s.
