Divergences: Architecture in Latin America and Late-20th-Century Discourses, edited by Ingrid Quintana-Guerrero, brings together a collection of essays by authors from Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and other regions, offering a plural and critical overview of the paths taken by Latin American architecture over the past 40 years.
The book examines processes of modernization, decolonization, identity, and solidarity, always grounded in close attention to the continent’s material, cultural, and geographic specificities. Topics include the impact of the 1980s in Medellín, the dialogues between younger architects and modernity through local materialities, as well as networks of collaboration among academic and professional groups.
Divergences reflects on the role of architecture as a tool for cultural negotiation, an expression of plurality, and a critique of colonial logics, providing key insights into the challenges and potentials of Latin American cities and communities in the early 21st century.
