Reporte al tapatío

The report to the man from Guadalajara is the initial nod that sets the playful tone of the edition. It is Juan Palomar, one of the founders of the FATLB, who delivers the report. His text, written in the first person, recounts both public and private matters, the very close relationship he had with Barragán and his contemporaries, the friendships, the visits to his house, and the complete admiration of a young architect who listened to him with such devotion that one day the master told him: "Don't worry so much about seeing what Barragán did; instead, look at what Barragán saw." Key figures in this story are present in the narrative, such as the family heirs and the architect Ignacio Díaz Morales, to whom Don Luis entrusted, before his death, the creation of an institution that would take charge of his library. The story of the foundation, from the death of the only Mexican Pritzker Prize winner, is told with rigor, but without solemnity, with an open heart and a lighthearted and colloquial tone that gives due importance to the details. Text is in Spanish.
