Oscar Niemeyer the great architect is 100 year old and still working

To mark his birthday on Saturday, a giant 100 hangs on the Copan building - which he, of course, designed - in Sao Paulo.

And still he keeps working, with a new city in Algiers on the drawing board, a cultural centre for Avila, Spain, and always dreaming up more projects for his homeland.

Oscar Niemeyer was interviewed for 100 Years of Concrete

A poem by Rumi

Those who seek God, you’re the God ….....…. Not outside you, in you, is the God Why then search for what you haven’t lost? ….. What's the gain searching for what’s not lost? To shower you with gifts, the Shah..... Oh, unbeknownst people, come to the richness of, the Shah ...... Shah is Simorgh (Phoenix), the soul, inside you, you and the power of your consciousness --------------------------------------------------------------- آنها که طلبکار خدائید، خدائید .................. ...........بیرون ز شما نیست، شمائید، شمائیدچیزی که نکردید گم، از بهر چه جوئید؟ .................... و اندر طلب گم نشده، بهر چرائید؟ تا دامنتان پر دُر و پر زر کند آن شاه (سیمرغ) ................. ای بیخبران از کرم شاه بیائید
