As an outcome of the book ‘Manuel Sánchez Arcas, Arquitecto’, the COAM Foundation organised an exhibition about his work in Spain prior to his exile. A corrugated steel plate similar to the one used by Sánchez Arcas in the corridors of CSIC folds and cuts order to form the exhibition course and host the content.
