An exhibition "Luis Barragan in Perspective" at the Seoul Art Center Gongpyeong Gallery gives you a timetraveler's ride to Mexico City, capital of Mexico, 20 years back, when the architect Barragan was still alive.
Nearly 100 photos, videos, maps, models and various documents by Barragan offer hints of what he was pursuing as an architect.
Charge d'affaires of the Mexican Embassy Mauricio Torres Cordova said he is "one of the greatest architects of the 20th century and the only Mexican to have won the renowned Pritsker Prize award."
The exhibition will be open until Dec. 4. For more information, visit the Web site:
