YOUNG ARCHITECTS OF SPAIN (YAS): A Window to the Unknown

With 62 design projects from all over Spain, the exhibition "Young Architects of Spain (YAS): A Window to the Unknown" displays the extraordinary quality of work of a generation of Spanish architects under age 40. Two common threads throughout their work are their buildings’ rigorous construction and their sensitivity to their surrounding environments, whether natural or cultural. They have erected structures with these characteristics in many places both inside and outside of Spain—for example, Shanghai, Oaxaca, and Budapest. These diverse places have been made better for their residents and visitors, thanks to mark these young architects have left behind. Opening Lecture & Reception: Thursday, March 30, 6:00 p.m. For more information about the Instituto Cervantes of Chicago, please visit: http://chicago.cervantes.es/en/default.shtm This exhibition is organized as part of the ongoing Architecture and Urban lecture series organized by the Instituto Cervantes of Chicago and MAS Studio and directed by Iker Gil.
