Santiago Calatrava

Book Abstract by: AcaDemon    


This paper takes the reader on a journey through the Metropolitan Art Museum as spectators of a Santiago Calatrava exhibition.
The paper presents Calatrava as one of the world's greatest architects, highlighting how his architectural works are translations of his actual art. The paper examines and discusses several of Calatrava's artistic and architectural pieces. The paper contends that it is his ability to blend mediums that makes Santiago Calatrava so successful, for he is not just an artist but nor is he just an engineer, he is the next generation of hybrid architects who can transcend their craft to become master artists.
