Casapueblo is a hotel located in Punta Ballena, 13 km away from Punta del Este, Uruguay. It was built by the Uruguayan artist Carlos Páez Vilaró originally as a summer house and workshop, but now includes a museum, an art gallery, a café and a hotel in its facilities. It became permanent residence of its creator, where he worked and where he spent his last days. == History== It was built around a wooden house made of boards found on the coast, called ''La Pionera'' (The Pioneer), by Carlos Páez Vilaró〔(Casapueblo - Hotel Casapueblo. ) Retrieved August 8, 2010.〕 who designed in a style that can be compared with the houses of the Mediterranean coast of Santorini, but the artist used to refer to Hornero, a typical bird of Uruguay, to discuss the type of construction. The construction took 36 years to complete. Inside is a museum, the artist's studio, an art gallery and a hotel. It features a tribute to his son Charles, Michael, one of the seventeen Uruguayan survivors of the crash of Uruguayan 571 Air Force Flight, which crashed in the Andes on October 13, 1972. He has received some of the major cultural and political world, such as writer Isabel Allende, the ambassador Mercedes Vicente, the sexologist Mariela Castro, the artist Vinicius de Moraes, among others.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Casapueblo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
