Slum eradication programs, highway construction, the creation of strategic towns, the redesign of public spaces, the building of stadiums, and the repurposing of cities for the "World Cup celebration": these are some of the territorial and urban projects carried out during the last military dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983) that this exhibition examines. It is a spatial reorganization carried out at all scales and across all regions of the country, which directly impacted broad sectors of the population and permanently transformed Argentine society.

This weekend, more than 140 buildings will open their doors to celebrate Open House Buenos Aires 2019, an international architecture and urbanism festival dedicated to showcasing works of great architectural, cultural, and heritage value, bridging the gap between the public, professionals, enthusiasts, and their city. On Saturday, November 9, and Sunday, November 10, numerous architecturally significant buildings—typically closed to the public—will open their doors to visitors, offering a unique opportunity to rediscover the architecture and history of the City of Buenos Aires.

Casa FOA, the national architecture, interior design, landscaping, and industry exhibition, returns to the province of Buenos Aires after 11 years. Hosted at the Círculo de Olivos, the 36th edition will open its doors to the public from September 13 to October 20, marking its return to the Buenos Aires region for the first time since 2008, when Casa FOA dazzled at the Puerto de Frutos in Tigre.
