| Sumario: | The G.A.T.E.P.A.C. foundation constitutes a milestone in the process of assimilation of the architecture of the Modern Movement in Spain. Its full integration into the C.I.R.P.A.C., its link to the CIAM congresses, its recognition by European avant-garde circles, and the development of an architectural work fully homologous with that carried out in Europe in the 1930s, represent the foundational moment of the process of implantation of architectural rationalism in our country, whose diffusion would be broken and long postponed because of the Spanish Civil War. The A.C. magazine (Contemporary Activity Documents), the group’s vehicle for the dissemination of information, proposed a way for presenting and diffusing the new architecture that was inspired by the cutting-edge European magazines of the interwar period, the use of photography and the proposal to merge architecture with other plastic arts. This made possible the construction of an image of modern architecture in Spain that was radically different from the characteristic graphic modes of the historicisms and eclecticisms of the time. |
