Performance artist Jill Magid is preparing a public exhibition inspired by the “emotional architecture” of Luis Barragán, the world renowned Mexican architect, engineer and builder of colorful and luminous temple-like homes. To gain access to Barragán’s professional archives, she orchestrates a surreal scheme of cunning intrigue, as creative and defiant as it is profoundly ironic.
