A stunning portfolio of work by Japan’s leading contemporary architect, showcasing exquisite photography of 28 extraordinary projects selected by Ando
Following the acclaimed first volume in Tadao Ando’s monograph series with Phaidon, Tadao Ando: The Colours of Light (1996), this new volume showcases the continual collaboration between Ando and photographer Richard Pare.
Beginning with the Pulitzer Arts Foundation in St. Louis, Missouri, and concluding with the Bourse de Commerce project, located in Paris, the book features Pare’s stunning photographs of 28 contemporary projects in locations around the world, including Japan, Germany, Mexico, South Korea, Italy, and the United States. Pare’s images, most of which have never been published, expertly capture Ando’s quietly powerful approach to architectural design.
Created in close collaboration with Ando and his studio, Light and Space opens with a foreword by the architect, an introduction by architect Dominique Perrault, and four original drawings Ando created specifically for this book, printed on thin tissue paper.
The Plates section features spare layouts and immersive gatefolds throughout, with Pare’s images offering unique insights into Ando’s acute attention to light and volume and how they engage with one another. An appendix, printed on textured paper, offers additional information about each project, including technical specifications, a brief descriptive text, as well as detailed sections and plans.
This clothbound, jacketed book closely aligns with the packaging of the first volume, creating an elegant companion set.
Rezensionen „Tadao Ando"
Praise for Volume 1, Tadao Ando: Colours of Light: ‘Exquisitely photographed by Richard Pare, the details of Mr Ando’s houses, office buildings, meditation spaces and churches haunt the retina.’ – New York Times ‘A superb example of a monograph that is more than simply a catalog of buildings. Richard Pare’s photographs beautifully capture the abstraction, the sublime simplicity, the materiality, and the quality of time (lines) in Ando’s work.‘ – Jury of the American Institute of ArchitectsBiografie – Ando, Tadao
