Three Spanish architects win the Pritzker Prize
Pritzker Prize
New York - AFP
Three relatively unknown Spanish architects -- Rafael Aranda, Carme Pigem and Ramon Vialta -- on Wednesday won the prestigious Pritzker Prize for a body of work that showcases modern materials like recycled steel and plastic.
It was the first time that the architecture prize has been shared by three people -- all partners in RCR Arquitectes, a firm based in Spain's Catalonia region.
"Their works range from public and private spaces to cultural venues and educational institutions, and their ability to intensely relate the environment specific to each site is a testament to their process and deep integrity," said Tom Pritzker, chairman of the foundation that sponsors the prize.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
