On Thursday, March 31, the final lecture of the month for the "The Work of Others" series will take place. The series is organized by the Center for Studies of Contemporary Architecture (CEAC) at the School of Architecture and Urban Studies (EAEU) of the Torcuato Di Tella University (UTDT) for the first semester of 2022. The lecture will be led by architect Diego Arriagada, with an introduction by architect Martín Huberman. Lectures by Martín Torrado, Jorge Silvetti (Machado Silvetti), and Mariano Clusellas will follow throughout April as part of this program of public, in-person events, which runs through early August and requires prior registration.

One of the first Rationalist houses in Latin America is Victoria Ocampo's residence, located in the Palermo Chico neighborhood of Buenos Aires—specifically at 2831 Rufino de Elizalde Street, on the corner of Mariscal Castilla. Designed in 1928 by architect Alejandro Bustillo, it is considered the first house to represent the Modern Movement in Argentina. The house caused a major stir at the time, sparking controversy and conflict among neighbors and municipal authorities who objected to inserting a Rationalist design into an environment dominated by French Neoclassical buildings.
