Alfredo Ghierra: "Somos expertos en desperdiciar oportunidades"

In "Las Ganas" (The Desire), visual artist Alfredo Ghierra spoke about the city as a collective construction and questioned some of the decisions that shaped Montevideo's evolution over the last century. From the depopulation of the Old City to the loss of its connection to the bay, the deterioration of public space, demolitions, and visual pollution, the artist and architect proposed considering heritage as part of an urban system and reflected on what kind of city we are building, what opportunities have been missed, and which ones can be recovered. #AlfredoGhierra #LasGanas #AlejandroFerreiro #Montevideo #OldCity #Heritage #Architecture #UrbanPlanning #PublicSpace #City #LaDiariaRadio #Uruguay #History #UruguayanCulture #Montevideo300
