Through these signatures, the traditional history of functionalist architecture in Mexico, its beginnings and its relationship to contemporary ideas of art can be reevaluated and corrected.

Este artículo parte de nuevos descubrimientos que ponen en crisis la historia de la casa O’Gorman y la Casa-Estudio Diego Rivera de Juan O’Gorman: una firma en la fachada de la primera y, gracias al análisis minucioso de fotografías recién descubiertas, la prueba de la existencia de una firma en la segunda. Por medio de estas firmas, la historia tradicional de la arquitectura funcionalista en Mexico, sus inicios, y su relación con las distintas concepciones del arte pueden ser reevaluadas y corregidas. A través de la relectura contextualizada de los textos del arquitecto, con esta nueva información, se definen de manera más compleja los distintos matices de los debates del arte y arquitectura, fundamentales para entender su producción en los años treinta del siglo xx.

This essay is centered on new discoveries that put into crisis the history of Juan O’Gorman’s O’Gorman House and the House and Studio of Diego Rivera: a signature on the façade of the former and, as a result of detailed analysis of recently discovered photographs, the proof of the existence of a signature on the latter. Through these signatures, the traditional history of functionalist architecture in Mexico, its beginnings and its relationship to contemporary ideas of art can be reevaluated and corrected. A contexualized re-reading of the writings of the architect, with this new information, yields a more nuanced and complex idea regarding the various debates of art and architecture that are central to understanding his production in the 1930s. |
