Arthur Gibney

Tributes have been paid to the award-winning and renowned architect Dr Arthur Gibney, who has died at the age of 73 after a sudden illness. The former president of the Royal Institute of Architects in Ireland (RIAI) and president of the Royal Hibernian Academy is survived by his wife Phyllis and son John. RIAI director John Graby yesterday described Dr Gibney as one of the most significant Irish architects of the 20th century. His technical and artistic ability added to his historical architecture research and conservation work made him worthy of the title of "complete architect", according to Mr Graby.
