Lecture: “The Work of Architect Raúl Sichero”

September 21, 2015
On Thursday, September 24, 2015, the Faculty of Architecture hosted a lecture titled “The Work of Architect Raúl Sichero,” presented by Dr. Pablo Frontini. The speaker discussed his thesis on the reconstruction of the architect’s body of work, taking as his starting point the near-total loss of the architect’s personal archive.

Dr. Frontini analyzed those projects that could be reconstructed graphically, as he had the full support of the architect, who accompanied the graphic design process from the outset, providing the initial guidelines and ruling out unverifiable hypotheses.

The objective of this research is to contribute to the understanding of Uruguay’s architectural identity.

Architect Frontini holds a Ph.D. in Architecture from the Barcelona School of Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. He received a Diploma of Advanced Studies from the Barcelona School of Architecture.
