Gonzalez-Pulido graduated from Tecnológico de Monterrey, one of the most prestigious universities in Latin America, in 1991, which explains the exhibition’s title. His 30-year post-graduation career includes running his own firm for six years in Mexico, immediately after Monterrey Tec; pursuing his master’s degree at MIT in Cambridge; working for 18 years with Helmut Jahn, where he was a Partner and the company’s President for 10 years before establishing his own practice, FGP Atelier in 2017 in Chicago. The projects in the show range from a single-family house, university buildings, sports stadiums, mosques, science and cultural buildings, skyscrapers, and airports in North and South America, Asia, Africa, Middle East, and in Gonzalez-Pulido’s native Mexico.
