The theme for this year's 15th Architecture Congress is Bioarchitecture: "A Natural Approach." This event is organized by students from the Faculty of Architecture who aim to promote knowledge of the architecture being produced both locally and globally.
Bioarchitecture focuses on creating healthy spaces using materials that do not harm the environment and can be integrated into the natural context. This approach requires a balance between construction, the natural environment, and society, while fostering an awareness that architecture must be grounded in natural principles.
You are cordially invited!

The studio, led by Anadis González and Fernando Martirena, addresses various conflicts and challenges in its daily practice, including job insecurity in a context where private architecture is illegal. Despite this obstacle, they have managed to develop a provocative body of built work that they intertwine with proposals linked to artistic practices.

The exhibition traces a brief journey from the material to the intangible, experimenting with architecture, digital art, NFTs, photography, and video.

The exhibition marks a new phase in her distinguished 22-year career. Curated by Felipe Scovino, the show presents eight works from the three series that give the exhibition its name. Produced this year using porcelain and stainless steel—materials the artist had not previously utilized—the works bridge the concepts of painting and sculpture.
‘Palimpsest Barragán’ offers a unique opportunity to engage closely with a 20th-century modernist architectural masterpiece by Luis Barragán. As a hidden and yet-to-be-recognized gem located in the middle of a paradisiacal jungle on the Pacific coast, the ruins of the unfinished building have faded into obscurity, much like pre-Hispanic pyramids in Mexico. It is currently in a state of progressive decay. The workshop will not only ‘unearth’ the project and finally place it on the map of architectural discourse, but it may also have a greater impact by initiating a debate surrounding the preservation of the disintegrating ruin.
New generations of thinkers and creators view destruction as the end of one cycle and the beginning of another—a future already upon us that demands we address the effects of the previous period through an essential, transparent, consistent, and horizontal union of ethics and aesthetics.
