The lines of Zahi Hadid
Zakha Hadid, one of the most famous architects in the world, died on March 31, 2016 from a heart attack in a hospital in Miami, where a course of treatment for bronchitis was underway.
Hadid was born in Baghdad in 1950 in a successful family of an Iraqi industrialist, who was educated in the West and led one of the liberal parties. Later, after Saddam Hussein came to power, the Hadid family left Iraq.
A Muslim woman, she attended a Catholic school with a child, later studied at the panic school in England. Then she studied mathematics at American University in Beirut.
In 1972, she entered AA - the school of the architectural association in London, one of the most famous architectural educational institutions in the world. There, Hadid studied with Rem Colhas, a prominent Dutch architect and theorist, and after the end of AA worked in his architectural company.
Hadid was attracted by Russian avant -garde: Tatlin, Lisitsky, Malevich. Her graduation project in AA was called "Tectonik Malevich" - it was a project of a multi -storey hotel over the Hangerford bridge over the Thames.
Her impressive spatial ideas and forms for a long time remained unrealized - later their embodiment was facilitated by the development of computer technology. Hadid is one of the stars of deconstructivism, the architectural current, freely playing forms.
Her first implemented building was the Fire Station "Vitra" in Germany in the mid-90s. The whole of the sharp corners, the composition impressed the architectural community, and the Career Hadid went uphill (the fire department, however, left the building).
Since then, Zaha Hadid has built her extraordinary buildings around the world. Her work caused enthusiasm, sometimes protests, as, for example, during the construction of the Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, for which, for which, as stated, people were evicted from houses demolished by force and without proper compensation.
