The Brazilian architect celebrated yesterday, at 15.12., His 101st Birthday. He completed his studies in 1934 and has since built all over the world. His most famous buildings include the UN headquarters in New York and the public buildings of the Brazilian capital Brasilia, which was created on the drawing board. Straight lines are hated him - round and irregular shapes characterize his buildings. Oscar Niemeyer is thinking about quitting would not: "Working keeps you young and older is shit"
