Manuel Núñez Yanowsky (1942–2022) was an Argentine-French architect known for theatrical Postmodernist buildings in the Paris region. The catalogue holds 2 of his works in Paris and Noisy-le-Grand.
The Arènes de Picasso (1985) in Noisy-le-Grand arranges social housing around two massive disc-shaped volumes — a Futurist and Postmodernist composition that turns public housing into architectural spectacle. The Police Station in Paris continues the Postmodernist vocabulary. Núñez Yanowsky's work belongs to the French grand ensemble tradition of treating social housing as an opportunity for monumental architecture.
