Produktbeschreibung
Rodney Gordon (2 February 1933 - 30 May 2008) was a British architect. He was the primary architect of the Tricorn centre, Portsmouth. Architecturally, his works were primarily in concrete; he was said to be a Brutalist and his buildings have been described as "dramatic, sculptural and enormous" as well as "futuristic". He was born on 2 February 1933 in Wanstead, east London to a Polish-Russian father and a Chilean mother, who was from the naval port of Punta Arenas Tierra Del Fuego, the southernmost city on Earth, overlooking the Straits of Magellan. Situated astride one of the world's historic trade routes, its prosperity has risen and fallen with that trade. Gordon's mother Carmalita left there sometime in the 1920s and returned to London, England, where her parents had been living sometime before they left for Chile around 1903.
