L.A. and Beyond Architecture and Art Tours

Combining iconic images of Cuba with my own personal photos, let's take a virtual journey through Cuba's vibrant architecture and rich culture. Cuba's architecture is deeply rooted in its Spanish colonial past, with elegant Baroque and Neoclassical buildings and grand plazas. Iconic Modernist and Art Deco buildings reflect Cuba's foray into the 20th century, and yet time seemed to stop in 1959 when radical changes in Cuba's politics and society emerged. We'll view buildings such as the Havana Cathedral, the Bacardi Building, Palacio de Valle, Fusterlandia, and many others.

At the turn of the century, reaction against the industrial age and a need for honesty and simplicity in design led the proponents of the Arts and Crafts movement to embrace a style of simple comfort and grace, influenced by the colors and materials of the earth. We will trace the development of the Arts and Crafts movement in England as it was shepherded by William Morris and his followers, as they rekindled enthusiasm for beauty, harmony, and craftsmanship in architecture, interiors, and hand-crafted decorative objects.
