Some aspects of a city’s history can only be understood through its buildings. There are aspects of Buenos Aires’s history that can only be known and understood through the Kavanagh Building. In 1934, the Kavanagh could have represented the future of Buenos Aires. That is where its historical significance lies.
In the brief two years of its development and construction, the Kavanagh put forward a proposition: a model for urban development. *Kavanagh Buenos Aires* brings together unique testimonies, research texts, and critical and historical perspectives. It features nearly 300 original photographs produced especially for the book, alongside significant images of great historical and documentary value.
Its chapters explore architecture, interior design, and artistic and literary works inspired by the building. The edition also includes drone footage accessible directly from its pages.
Conceived and directed by Guillermo Alonso, the project was brought to fruition by editor and designer Ezequiel Díaz Ortiz, together with photographers Emma Livingston and Gustavo Sosa Pinilla. Researchers Silvio Plotquin, Mariana Fiorito, and Eleonora Menéndez contributed the texts. Architect Marcelo Nougués and Ambassador Sergio Baur developed the sections devoted to design and decoration, and to the Kavanagh’s relationship with literature and the arts, respectively.
