Luz Paz Agras

Luz Paz Agras serves as an Assistant Professor in the School of Architecture at the University of A Coruña, Spain, teaching architectural theory while maintaining active professional practice since 2004. A graduate of the same institution's architecture program, she holds advanced degrees including a Master's in Contemporary Art from the University of Santiago de Compostela and a 2013 PhD from the University of A Coruña focused on historical exhibition spaces.

Her academic journey includes:

• Master's in Contemporary Art: University of Santiago de Compostela
• PhD in Architecture (2013): University of A Coruña, thesis on 'Contemporary Exhibition Spaces, 1923-1942. Interaction between Art and Architecture'

Dr. Agras' research explores the dynamic relationship between art and architectural design, particularly in exhibition contexts spanning the early 20th century. Her work bridges historical analysis with contemporary spatial practice through ongoing architectural projects and exhibition curation. This interdisciplinary approach is reflected in her postdoctoral research at UCL's Bartlett School, supported by Fundación Barrié.

Her professional excellence has been recognized through multiple prestigious awards:

• XIV and XV Awards of the Architects Association (Galicia)
• Selection in Arquia/Proxima 2012 (Barcelona)

She has secured research funding including the Fundación Barrié postdoctoral scholarship and maintains significant editorial contributions as a longstanding member of DARDOmagazine's board (since 2010) and current co-editor of the Scopus-indexed Boletín Académico, advancing scholarly discourse in art-architecture intersections.
