Abstract

The Japanese architect Atsushi Kitagawara has been firmly established in the architecture scene of his homeland for 30 years. He is a protagonist of an artistically shaped and expressionistic architectural style, which celebrates the experience of space, without losing sight of the functional requirements. Through numerous award-winning projects, such as the Nakamura Keith Haring Museum, he is constantly exploring new means of construction, composition and usage of materials. He thereby creates complex spatial structures and façades, which challenge the conventional viewing patterns of the user, whilst never diminishing the human criteria. This volume from the 'Portfolio' series is the first monograph outside of Japan to present prominent current and older projects by Atsushi Kitagawara Architects by means of text and images.

Abstract

Shaking the Foundations reveals the personalities and passions hidden behind the cool, abstract exterior of the Japanese design scene in the form of a collection of interviews. Renowned architects such as Tadao Ando and Kisho Kurokawa speak out on issues ranging from the rebirth of Japanese design after World War II to progressive technologies, while newcomers disclose the trials and tribulations of "making it" in today's highly competitive commissions market. These frank, controversial, and at times humorous exchanges provide an informative overview of a lively and multifaceted professional discourse. All the architects interviewed show a special interest in creating a particularly Japanese architecture for the coming century. If any one view on this topic identifies Japanese architecture as a distinct movement, it is the conscious decision to contradict Western architecture, to swim against the tide of European and American cultural imperialism.This radical position reflects the freedom Japanese architecture has attained through its strong international presence and unique cultural character. And if the past and the present are any indication of the future, then this volume predicts that Japanese architecture will gain a stronger foothold and following in global design theory in the decades to come.
