Madrid pays tribute to architect Luis Gutiérrez Soto with an outdoor exhibition in the emblematic El Retiro Park. At an event in which the 125th anniversary of their birth was celebrated, the delegate for Culture, Tourism and Sport, Marta Rivera de la Cruz, led the inaugural visit to this unique exhibition.
The exhibition, which will be available to the public until a date yet to be confirmed, has been organized by the Area of Culture, Tourism and Sport of the Madrid City Council. This initiative aims to highlight the life and legacy of Gutiérrez Soto, a key figure in Madrid's 20th-century architecture.
The architect is known for his innovative contributions to the capital's urban landscape. With a style characterized by diversity and adaptation to the cultural and social changes of his time, Gutiérrez Soto left an indelible mark on the city, which is now celebrated through this exhibition.
Visitors to the exhibition will be able to explore scale models, photographs, and previously unseen documents that illustrate the evolution of their work and the impact of their creations in Madrid. The outdoor exhibition not only provides a tour through their work, but also invites reflection on the role of architecture in shaping urban identities.
The opening of this event underscores the Madrid City Council's commitment to promoting culture and recognizing historical figures whose work continues to influence the lives of citizens. With this exhibition, the capital celebrates not only the architectural talent of Gutiérrez Soto, but also his transformative vision, which continues to resonate in contemporary Madrid.
