SHARE OPERA OMNIA Awards Ceremony
Laureate: Arch. ALLA KIRICENKO

Albina (Alla) Kiricenko is one of the key figures of modernist urban planning and architecture in Chișinău. Born in 1938 in the Moscow region and educated at the prestigious MARHI School of Architecture, she specialized in urban planning and played a decisive role in the strategic development of Moldova’s capital. She developed the planning concept for the Botanica district, proposed the creation of the City Gates as an emblematic entrance to Chișinău, and advocated for a coherent urban link between the airport and the city center. She also consistently promoted wide boulevards designed to support the city’s long-term growth—an approach that is still reflected today in Chișinău’s urban structure. Her most significant achievement remains the Chișinău Circus, inaugurated in 1981, an iconic landmark of local modernism.
