Book Mexico City by Assouline

Description

With a history dating back to the 14th century, Mexico City blends indigenous pre-Hispanic roots, colonial architecture and Spanish Baroque influences. This unique fusion, made from local materials like cantera and tezontle, inspires artists and architects. Iconic structures like Diego Rivera's Anahuacalli Museum and Juan O'Gorman's Cave House proudly embody the city's rich history. Today, Mexico City serves as a dynamic setting for renowned filmmakers such as Alejandro González Iñárritu, Alfonso Cuarón and Michel Franco. Discover a city of wonders, where history and creativity come to life.
