Humberto Spindola proposes to intervene the architecture of Luis Barragán with his work of installations in Chinese paper. This is intended to recover the dialogue between the painter Chucho Reyes Ferreira, who gave the color palette to the work of Luis Barragán, and the architecture of Barragan. The author argues that this dialogue, which resulted in color in the Barraganian architecture, was based on the use of the paper of china (tissue paper, papier de soie) material in which master Chucho Reyes painted his extensive work. Spíndola has approached the role of china with an unusual work that is based on the traditional Mexican techniques of paper works: paper and pinateria but approaching them to the world of art through noble materials, acid free and pigments of the More recent generations. The six works he has created for this occasion, allow the lightness, color and capacity of movement of his facilities in Chinese paper to interact with the lighting, drafts and spaces that the architecture creates. A contemporary dialogue. This book is a catalog of the exhibition of Humberto Spindola in the house of Luis Barragan and in other houses of its authorship. And it contains presentations of the work of Spindola by the distinguished critics of art and architecture: Jorge Alberto Manrique, Lilly Kassner and Miquel Adria. 7 photographs, 11 illustrations
