Oscar Niemeyer, Architect turns 102

December 18, 2009

One of my favourite architects Oscar Niemeyer, the famous Brazilian architect has turned 102 this week and he still goes to work everyday.

Oscar Niemyer is probably best known for his architectural masterpiece, the city of Brasilia. The whole city was built from scratch in the late 50’s and eventually became the capital of Brazil in 1960.

I hope I am still taking photographs at 102.

There is an interview with him on youtube that also show examples of his fine work- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGK-I1gtLfo

Architectural photography of Communications Tower, Montjuic,Barcelona

December 7, 2009

I have added some more architectural images to my Flickr site . These are of Communications Tower, Montjuic, Barcelona, Spain from a few years ago, tucked away in my archives I thought its about time they saw the light of day.

The tower was designed by one of my favourte architects Santiago Calatrava to transmit television coverage of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. It was to be the turning point in his career.

I remember seeing this tower on a Peugeot advert around 10 years ago,it looked like something from a scifi film set.I had to go and see it, this was my main reason for my first trip to Barcelona in 2002, I have returned 7 times since. I have yet to photograph it at night, maybe next time
