No fewer than seven Japanese architects have won the Pritzker Prize.<br/>Since Osaka World Expo ?70 brought contemporary forms center stage, Japan has been a key player in global architecture. With his intentionally limited vocabulary of geometric forms, Tadao Ando has since then put Japanese building on the world?s cultural map, establishing a bridge between East and West. In the wake of Ando?s mostly concrete buildings, figures like Kengo Kuma (Japan National Stadium intended for the Olympic Games, originally planned for 2020), Shigeru Ban (Mount Fuji World Heritage Center), and Kazuyo Sejima (Kanazawa Museum of 21st Century Art of Contemporary Art) pioneered a more sustainable approach. Younger generations have successfully developed new directions in Japanese architecture that are in harmony with nature and connected to traditional building. Rather than planning on the drawing board, the architects presented in this collection stand out for their endless search for forms, truly reacting on their environment.<br/>Presenting the latest in Japanese building, this book reveals how this unique creativity is a fruit of Japan?s very particular situation that includes high population density, a modern, efficient economy, a long history, and the continual presence of disasters in the form of earthquakes. Accepting ambiguity, as seen in the evanescent reflections of Sejima?s Kanazawa Museum, or constant change and the threat of catastrophe is a key to understanding what makes Japanese architecture different from that of Europe or America.<br/>This XL-sized book highlights 39 architects and 55 exceptional projects by Japanese masters?from Tadao Ando?s Shanghai Poly Theater, Shigeru Ban?s concert hall La Seine Musical, SANAA?S Grace Farms, Fumihiko Maki?s 4 World Trade Center, to Takashi Suo?s much smaller sustainable dental clinic. Each project is introduced with photos, original floor plans and technical drawings, as well as insightful descriptions and brief biographies. An elaborate essay traces the country?s building scene from the Metabolists to today and shows how the interaction of past, present, and future has earned contemporary Japanese architecture worldwide recognition.363205Contemporary Japanese Architecture (Xx,Ie)16492100https://www.gandhi.com.mx/contemporary-japanese-architecture/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1792595/af153901-52ab-4427-9da3-7bd3a8d6f43e.jpg?v=638548529474130000OutOfStockMXN0FITapa dura1a Edición20219783836575119_<p>Un estudio de la escena arquitectónica contemporánea de Japón</p><p>La arquitectura japonesa contemporánea ha sido durante mucho tiempo una de las más imaginativas del mundo, y es famosa por sus diseños sostenibles y su infinita creatividad. Nada menos que siete arquitectos japoneses han ganado el premio Pritzker.</p><p>Desde que la Exposición Universal de Osaka de 1970 cedió el protagonismo a las formas contemporáneas, Japón ha sido uno de los actores clave de la arquitectura global. Con un vocabulario limitado intencionalmente a formas geométricas, Tadao Ando puso la arquitectura japonesa en el mapa cultural del mundo y estableció un puente entre Oriente y Occidente. Siguiendo la estela de los edificios de Ando, en su mayoría de hormigón, figuras como Kengo Kuma (Estadio Nacional de Japón, destinado a albergar los Juegos Olímpicos que debían haberse celebrado en 2020), Shigeru Ban (Centro de Patrimonio Mundial Monte Fuji) y Kazuyo Sejima (Museo de Arte Contemporáneo del Siglo XXI de Kanazawa) se convirtieron en pioneros de un enfoque más sostenible. Las generaciones más jóvenes han desarrollado con éxito nuevas líneas en la arquitectura japonesa que están en armonía con la naturaleza y conectan con la construcción tradicional. Más que planificar sobre la mesa de dibujo, los arquitectos presentados en esta colección destacan por una búsqueda incesante de formas que se adapten verdaderamente a su entorno.</p><p>Además de presentar las últimas tendencias de la arquitectura japonesa, este libro muestra cómo esta creatividad única es fruto de la particular situación del país, que incluye una alta densidad de población, una economía moderna y eficiente, una larga historia y la presencia continua de desastres naturales en forma de terremotos. La aceptación de la ambigüedad, como se ve en los reflejos evanescentes del Museo Kanazawa de Sejima, el cambio constante y la amenaza de las catástrofes son las claves que permiten comprender por qué la arquitectura japonesa es diferente de la europea o la americana.</p><p>Este libro de tamaño XL destaca 39 arquitectos y 55 proyectos, como el Teatro Poly de Shanghái de Tadao Ando, la sala de conciertos La Seine Musical de Shigeru Ban, Grace Farms de SANAA, el 4 World Trade Center de Fumihiko Maki o la clínica dental sostenible de Takashi Suo. Cada proyecto se presenta con fotos, planos de planta originales y dibujos técnicos, así como descripciones detalladas y breves biografías. Un exhaustivo ensayo repasa la escena arquitectónica del país desde los metabolistas hasta hoy y muestra cómo la interacción de pasado, presente y futuro constituye la base de la arquitectura japonesa contemporánea.</p>(*_*)9783836575119_The contemporary architecture of Japan has long been among the most inventive in the world, recognized for sustainability and infinite creativity.
