The architecture of the Modern Movement in Guadalajara was unique and prolific, the result of a series of social and economic factors that put the city for a moment in its history at the international forefront. The diversity of events, in particular the creation of the School of Architecture of the Universidad de Guadalajara (1947), consolidated this modernity in extraordinary public buildings. In 1947 engineer Ignacio Díaz Morales decided to create the School of architecture of the University of Guadalajara. To this end, he asked the then rector, Dr. Luis Farah, to send him to Europe and hire renowned modernist artists and architects who were without work in the post-war period. Thus, in 1948, artist Mathias and his wife Marian Goeritz (Germany), and Eric Coufal (Austria) arrived in Guadalajara. Soon they were joined by Italians Bruno Cadore Marcolongo (1915-1993) and Silvio Alberti Levati (1922-1999), and german Horst Hartung Franz whom alongside Luis Barragán, Rafael Urzúa, Julio de la Peña, Gonzalo Villa Chávez, Jaime Castiello and Díaz Morales, formed the academic staff of the newly formed school.
