Modernismos Sindéticos nº 3 142 pages color plates bibliographical references pages 137-141 color pict. wrps In this edition of Síndesis III Professor Eduardo Aquino has been linked to the project with a chapter in which he develops an original proposal about an environmental condition not necessarily related to the beach as such in a literal geographic sense but conceived as a qualitative public space and a place for creative leisure so necessary for a contemporary society. Ricardo L. Castro returns to this series with an essay in which during an annual personal pilgrimage he launches a syndicated look from Delphi. There he finds countless relationships with his experiences of the Chapel of Brother Klaus designed by Peter Zumthor in southern Cologne Germany.
