As its debut at ZONAMACO Foto, SAENGER Galería presents previously unseen images by photographer Maria Svarbova, taken in the summer of 2025 at La Cuadra San Cristóbal, a project by the only Mexican architect to have won the Pritzker Prize, Luis Barragán, designed between 1966 and 1968.
Following her first solo exhibition in Latin America, Surface-held in the gallery's main space during the summer of 2025-SAENGER Galería now presents a series of photographs that break with the established aesthetic of the renowned Slovak photographer. On this occasion, the brutalist architecture of Eastern Europe is replaced by Barragán's emotional architecture, shifting from the sheen of tiles to the power of color.
Maria continues the narrative developed in her other bodies of work, in which her carefully composed single shots are combined with the repetition of elements and settings, generating reflections-real or fictitious-that construct a universe where beauty is frozen in time, fixing these images indefinitely in the viewer's memory.
