Héctor Vigliecca (Montevideo, 16 October 1940) is a Uruguayan architect and urban planner living in Brazil since 1975. He collects a vast production of work that includes social housing projects, sports arenas and buildings in the cultural, educational and institutional realm as well as large scale urban projects. He is the founder of the architecture office Vigliecca & Associates established in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Vigliecca is known due to participation in national and international competitions, which resulted in 50 prizes and inspired the book “Hypotheses on Reality” (2013), gathering public competition projects designed between 1971 and 2011. He is also the author of "The Third Territory - Collective Housing and City (2015)" and one of the authors of "Arena Castelão - Governador Plácido Aderaldo Castelo (2014)" about Arena Castelão. == Biography == Graduated from the Universidad da La Republica – UDELAR (1968), under the mentorship of Antonio Cravotto in Montevideo, he participated, while still at the University, in a study group called Núcleo do Sol (Center of the Sun), that was ideologically against the concepts of the Athen’s Letter and believed in the lessons of Team X, in other words, the recovery of the streets, the continuous structure with well-balanced densities and mixed uses. The Núcleo do Sol invested in projects related to its surroundings that were socially engaged. After graduation, he spent three years in Europe, between England, Germany, Spain and Italy, where he earned a post-graduation degree in Urbanism at the Università degli Studi di Roma. Once he returned to Montevideo in the early 70’s, he was a member of the ideal-office Estúdio 18, later on called Estúdio Reconquista (Reconquer Studio). This studio enabled several multiple punctual associations, characterized by a permanent critic sense and a constant exchange of ideas, all taking place in a very fraternal atmosphere. The Bulevar Artigas Complex, residential complex for the Uruguayan Cooperative Center (CCU) was designed during this phase by Héctor Vigliecca, Arturo Vilaamil, Ramiro Bascans and Thomas Sprechmann. This project is part of the exhibition “Latin America in Construction: Architecture 1955-1980” (29 March till 19 July 2015)at the MoMA, in New York, and belongs to the permanent collection of the museum. In 1975, Hector moved to Brazil. In São Paulo, he worked with the architect Joaquim Guedes (participating in the Novotel project in Morumbi) and was head of the Nacional Architecture Consortium of Contracting Engineers (CNEC) – the golden ages of the Brazilian engineering firms – where we developed large scale projects such as the construction of new cities flooded by damns. Right after, he inaugurated the office Padovano & Vigliecca Architects, that stayed active for seven years and in 1996, he founded Vigliecca and Associates – still active. In parallel to his professional career, he has been active in the academic realm since the 70’s. He was a professor at the UDELAR Architecture School in Montevideo and also at the Mackenzie and UNIP Universities in São Paulo (from 1992 – 2012). He still acts as a special guest professor and lecturer. 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「Héctor Vigliecca」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
