...projects, office buildings, stadiums, university halls and government buildings. In the major cities, new, skyscrapered skylines rise amidst one-and two-century-old slum clusters and rows of two-story stores. To portray a decade of tumultuous growth, Manhattan's Museum of Modern Art is currently displaying a photographic exhibit (assembled by Architecture Historian Henry-Russell Hitchcock) of 49 major building projects in ten Latin American countries and Puerto Rico. The display demonstrates that Latin American architects have not only developed a dramatic style of their own, but one ideally suited to their climate and way of life...

In such an enlarged exhibit the works from fine arts classes could and most probably ought to be shown separately from other paintings. But a University-wide showing would help to reorganize the activity...
