Ando. Complete Works 1975-today (English and French and German Edition)

<strong>The Tadao Touch</strong><br />Ando€s complete works from 1975 to 2014<br /><br />Philippe Starck describes him as a €œmystic in a country which is no longer mystic.€ Philip Drew calls his buildings €œland art€ as they €œstruggle to emerge from the earth.€ He is the <strong>only architect to have won the discipline€s four most prestigious prizes</strong>: the Pritzker, Carlsberg, Praemium Imperiale, and Kyoto Prize.<br /><br /> This thoroughly <strong>updated 2014 edition of the Ando monograph</strong> celebrates the completely unique aesthetic of one of the world€s most acclaimed architects. Spanning his entire career, including such stunning new projects as the <strong>Hansol Museum in South Korea and Teatrino in Venice, Italy</strong>, it explores his <strong>unprecedented use of concrete, wood, water, light, space, and natural forms</strong>. A testimony to the diversity and global reach of the Ando touch, featured designs include award-winning private homes, churches, museums, apartment complexes, and cultural spaces throughout Japan, as well as in France, Italy, Spain, and the USA.<br /><br /> Text in English, French, and German
