Biography

Silvia Arango was born on September 28, 1948, in Bogotá. She completed her training as an architect at the Universidad de los Andes, from which she graduated in 1972 to go on to Europe where she engaged in postgraduate studies in England and France. She returned to Colombia in 1977 and dedicated herself to doctoral research, with a thesis titled Evolution of Public Space in Bogotá in the Twentieth Century, which garnered honors and opened the way to a teaching career in 1978. Her career would turn out to be prolific in developing methodologies and educational programs in the country and abroad. Besides her contributions to the academy in the field of teaching, she has also published books and articles that have become references for both Colombian and Latin American architecture, such as Ciudad y arquitectura. Seis generaciones que construyeron la América Latina moderna (City and Architecture: Six generations that built modern Latin America), published in 2012. "The research took Silvia Arango Cardinal fifteen years to complete, during which she traveled through Latin American cities and explored historical works of city architecture, monographs, case studies, books, magazines, and theses, as well as holding interviews, conversations, consulting specialists, and paying special attention to the reading and interpretation of graphical documents, a source dear to the Colombian researcher."[1]

Artistic Career

Silvia Arango's career in architecture research has been notable and is considered a contribution in the field of academia. Her research and writing have permitted the rigorous study of the architectural and urban history of Bogota and Latin America.

From the first moments of her career, Arango demonstrated her fascination with research, as revealed in “Historia de la Arquitectura en Colombia” (History of Architecture in Colombia), her first published book, considered the most complete work of research on the subject. Thanks to its analysis, historiographic concepts, and critical stance, it became a reference text on national architectural values. Her knowledge has led her to become a juror for architectural biennials and to direct various projects.

She is currently a full-time professor in the master's program in history and theory of art, architecture and the city at the National University of Colombia, Bogotá, and directs the Research Group on Art and Architecture Issues in Latin America (GISTAL).

Characteristics of her work

Her work is known for its innovative take on the idea of architecture, analyzing it beyond aesthetic criteria or innovation and seeing it in terms of its usefulness for the construction of livable spaces within a city.

Arango’s research is sociological, lending importance to the relationship between spaces and human beings, very critical of the role of construction. Her work attempts to explain why architecture should be at the service of citizens and how it has been transformed by the history of places.
