Homage edition dedicated to architect Juan Augusto Plou (Buenos Aires 1860-1941) and his extensive work, some still to be identified. Plou was not French by birth, but his work responded to a distinctly French "Beaux Arts" influence favored by Argentine aristocrats who followed the European fashion in point of elegance at the beginning of the 20th century. His architecture career was "inserted in an interesting context where the professional reference framework and the scenography were in a process of change. But to this, we must add that Plou has singularities of his own condition that are important to understand his work. The first is that we found is that we are faced with and Argentinean who goes and studies in France and returns with the baggage of the "conflict" between the normativity and the academy. The second is that with certainty Plou already had a practical experience in the construction resulting from the circumstance that his family operated in that activity in an extensive and efficient way." (HKB Translation) -Front Flap.
