AMAG 39: Ivan Bravo & Santiago Valdivieso documents two Chilean practices whose architectural output is inseparable from their work in visual arts, design, and exhibition curation — a productive entanglement that this edition places at its centre.
About This Book
This edition of AMAG — the Portuguese architectural monograph series — turns its attention to two Chilean architects whose practices resist the boundary between building and art-making. Ivan Bravo and Santiago Valdivieso each operate across architecture, visual arts, design, and curation, a combination the editors identify as characteristic of a particular strain of Chilean practice. The work presented includes built projects, landscape interventions, installations, and pavilions. For readers interested in Latin American architecture and the crossover between spatial practice and contemporary art, this is a focused and revealing document of two distinct but thematically aligned bodies of work.
