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 />
