Summary:

Luis Barragan is among the world's most celebrated architects of the twentieth century. Upon his death in 1988, much of his work was locked away in a Swiss bunker, hidden from the world's view. In an attempt to resurrect Barragan's life and art, boundary redefining artist Jill Magid creates a daring proposition that becomes a fascinating artwork in itself. A high-wire act of negotiation that explores how far an artist will go to democratize access to art.
