ETTINGER, Catherine R.. Alberto Le Duc, Lázaro Cárdenas and the proposal for an architecture for Michoacán: México (1935-1945). An. Inst. Arte Am. Investig. Estét. Mario J. Buschiazzo [online]. 2020, vol.50, n.2, pp.229-242. ISSN 2362-2024.

The architect Albert Le Duc played a significant role in the development of an architectural aesthetic associated with General Lázaro Cárdenas, Governor of the State of Michoacán (1928-1932) and President of Mexico (1934-1940). He translated the indigenist politics of Cárdenas as well as his love for rural and small town life into architectural languages in buildings for culture, education and health in the State of Michoacán. He was also hired by Cárdenas to design three of his homes. This article is a first approach to the work of this character, hitherto little visible in the historiography of Mexican architecture, and is based on documentary work, field trips and surveys. It also aims to recognize the importance of an aesthetic proposal as part of Cardenas's policies.
