La arquitectura y las revistas sobre esta disciplina están tan íntimamente ligadas que resulta impensable abordar la primera sin recurrir a las segundas.Para quienes trabajamos en temas relacionados con la historia y crítica de la arquitectura, existe una visión particular en torno de las revistas de la profesión. Este renglón de nuestra disciplina constituye el instrumento más importante del que disponemos para entender su desarrollo en el siglo XX latinoamericano, ya que son escasas las fuentes con capacidad para informar y referenciar la arquitectura del modo en que lo ofrecen las páginas de las publicaciones periódicas.
