description
In Santiago Calatrava’s mind, there has never been a separation between architecture and art. Both have been a source of nourishment and a laboratory of expression, with the ultimate goal of finding a personal language. With large reproductions and a wide selection of works, this book details an oeuvre that has been silently growing throughout Calatrava’s life in a multitude of mediums. His artworks have at times been shown in tandem with his architecture in the world’s top museums, but this publication presents for the first time his artistic work in its entirety.
