Biography and Work

Born in the 1920s, Nina Feldbrina started her career in Krasnoyarsk in the east of Russia, where she, worked with A. Golubev, designed the building of the river port (1949-1952), which received a prize at the Brussels international exposition in 1958. Upon moving to Chișinău, Moldova, in the 1960s, she was involved with the design of its general plan and the masterplan of Rîșcani district. In Chișinău, she often collaborated with Alla (Albina) Kirichenko. In the aftermath of Moldova’s independence Feldbrina emigrated to Israel.
