22 Architecture Classics to Celebrate the Day of the Architect in Argentina

Subscriber Access

Within South America, different dates have been established to pay tribute to and honour the career, life and work of architecture professionals. While in Uruguay it is celebrated every 27th of November in relation to the creation of the first Faculty of Architecture, in Brazil every 15th of December in homage to the birth of Oscar Niemeyer or in Chile every 4th of August for the founding of the College of Architects, the Argentine Federation of Architects' Associations (FADEA) kept the 1st of July to commemorate the Day of the Argentinean Architect, respecting the establishment of the International Day of Architecture, established by the International Union of Architects (UIA) in 1985.

Alejandro Bustillo, Flora Manteola, Mario Roberto Álvarez, Martha Levisman, Odilia Suárez, Amancio Williams and César Pelli are just some of the Argentinean architects who have left a legacy of countless works and projects scattered throughout the country, which, regardless of the historical moment in which they were built, represent objects of study and research for present and future generations.
