A 73-year-old woman was admitted to Espirito do Santo Hospital in
Evora, Alentejo region, on August 18, 2004. The Portuguese Institute of Architectural Heritage (IPPAR) is also
building interpretation centres in archaeological sites in the
impoverished Alentejo region: the Roman Villa at Cucufate and the Roman
city of Mirobriga are two good examples whose intended benefits extend
beyond the sites and into the local economies and populations. Here the
architectural forms typical of the Alentejo, square houses painted a
blinding white with broad chimneys and few windows, confront Modernist
volumetric experiments, conferring on this part of the city a uniformity
that is, however, subtly disrupted by a modern version of an aqueduct
consisting of above-ground supply lines. |
