More about the book

This book exemplifies that nexus, bringing together the works of Silvia Martínez-Palou and photographs taken by Francesc Català-Roca of the same architecture. His vision, used as an instrument for the geometric abstraction of the buildings, helps us to explore the plastic potential they contain. They generate compositions that are, in the end, more faithful to the vision of the artist that has created them than the space itself they are inspired by. From a sublime compositional pattern emerges an infinite geometric fabric.
