ARCHITECTURAL RECORD APRIL <strong>2015</strong> PORTFOLIO EXHIBITION PREVIEW<br />

Latin America’s<br />

Moment<br />

Arrives Again<br />

Sixty years ago, the Museum of Modern<br />

Art in New York presented Latin American<br />

Architecture Since 1945, turning attention<br />

to a part of the world that seemed ready<br />

to assume a major role in architecture<br />

and design. Military coups and economic<br />

turmoil in the 1960s and ’70s, though,<br />

put an end to such optimism. Now the<br />

region is a dynamic force once again, and<br />

the museum has mounted an ambitious<br />

exhibition, Latin America in Construction:<br />

Architecture 1955–1980. São Paulo–based<br />

Leonardo Finotti took new photographs<br />

of many of the buildings in the show<br />

(running through July 19).<br />
