A visual and scholarly deep dive into Cuba's modernist gems of the postwar eraIn the decades after World War II, from just prior to the revolution and into the mid-1980s, modernist architecture blossomed in Cuba, attracting both native talent and leading international architects from Europe. Edited by Rubn Gallo--author of Mexican Modernity (2005), Freud's Mexico (2010) and Proust's Latin Americans (2014)--the volume is arranged in 10 chapters authored by current and former Princeton faculty members and graduate students. Havana Modern examines Cuban modernism's highlights with a wealth of archival materials, photos and new scholarship.
These essays, which arose from seminars organized by Gallo and historian Beatriz Colomina, examine Max Abramovitz's American Embassy; Richard Neutra's De Schultess House; Martn Domnguez Esteban,
