Gabriel Ruiz Larrea
Gabriel Ruiz Larrea is an architect, artist and editor, who studied at ETSAM and the T. Universität Berlin, whose work blurs the boundaries between art and architecture, theory and practice. He has worked in many international architecture offices, such as Mila Berlin, Topotek, Nieto Sobejano, and Izaskun Chinchilla Architects, among others.
He is co–founder, and member between 2010 and 2013, of the Taller de Casqueria collective, a platform where he investigated the production of images from actions, performances and space activations. Their works have been exhibited at Centro de Arte Contemporáneo 2 de Mayo de Madrid (CA2M), Centro Centro, and the München Pinakothek.
In 2013 he created Paper / Architectural Histamine, a platform for contemporary architectural thought, from where he edits several publications, conceived as tools to explore new ideas around the architectural experience. In 2015, he received the FAD award for Thought and Criticism for his periodical publications Desierto, and in 2016, he was awarded with one of the prestigious Graham Foundation for the Fine Arts grants.
