Le Corbusier's Machinolatrie

Angel Guido

Published by Edition of Giró and Scoppetta, imprimeurs, Rosario, Argentina, 1930

Paperback 22x16 cm, 60 pp. + 28 pp.

The Architect Ángel Guido, promoter of American architecture and art, warns American students against the mechanistic theories of art embodied by Le Corbusier, who visited Argentina in 1930. In any case, he reaffirms his admiration for the agile and brave attitude of Le Corbusier, whom he considers a great artist and a great architect despite being trapped by the iron structure of his own machino latria. This book had a lot of impact in artistic circles in the Latin American world.
