Gentlemen, gentlemen...
I have enjoyed this tiff, which is getting down to the one we saw with "cejay"/ Come on, now.
Here is a question for both of you: Do you know Francisco Camarena?
Who built Julio's house in Punta Cana?
TW, get off your high horse and be nice!
John, no one is putting you down, but it seems that you are just a bit too proud or took offence too easily here.
And I beg to differ: There IS Dominican arquitecture. Not famous, but it is growing. Remember that for years our monuments were built by European arquitects and designers. Our most famous builders were mostly trained in Europe and the States. After all, there is only so much a small country can do. In the same vein, there is no Salvadorean, Guatemalan, Honduran, Nicaraguan or Costarican, puertorican, or cuban arquitecture. And as for "Mexican" arquitecture, i think I can make an argument that it is still growing. After all, remember that in 1910, at that famous art show in Mexico City to celebrate Porfirio Diaz'40 years of government, there were no Mexican artists at all!! Same thing here. Our arquitects are growing, and some of them are good, very good.
so gentlemen, let's tone this down a bit, okey. Go have that talk over a few good drinks...
