- Abstract
The professional career of architect Miguel Fisac unfolds through a long and tortuous path. It begins, in an almost romantic way, in his hiding place under the roof of his house in the terrible years of the Spanish Civil War. After the war, he joined a generation of promising architects. Since the beginnings of National-Catholic architecture, they carried out the herculean task of reintroducing modern architecture in the Spanish Autarky. His personality, always individualistic and controversial, does not follow teachers or schools. After a period of certain public ostracism, he develops important novelties that culminate, in the award of the Gold Medal for Spanish Architecture in 1994 (Cánovas, Andrés, 1997). For Fisac, drawing was an inseparable companion during that long trajectory. However, as we will see throughout these pages, drawing for Fisac was a parallel activity to the project.
