Francisco Salamone
Francisco Salamone created some of the most outstanding works of Art Deco throughout Argentina, often in hidden pockets of Las Pampas. This webinar invites you to travel to these locations online with Fabio Grementieri (Argentine Architect) as your expert guide!
Francisco Salamone (June 5, 1897 – August 8, 1959) was an Argentine architect of Italian descent who, between 1936 and 1940, during the Infamous Decade, built more than 60 municipal buildings with elements of Art Deco style in 25 rural communities on the Argentine Pampas within the Buenos Aires Province. These buildings were some of the first examples of modern architecture in rural Argentina.
