Jan 28, 2016 ‘A Japanese Constellation: Toyo Ito, SANAA, and Beyond’
A new exhibition in New York popped up and it’s called ‘A Japanese Constellation: Toyo Ito, SANAA, and Beyond’. Some of Architecture For Dogs contributing architects, Toyo Ito, and SANAA (Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa) will showcase Ito’s 40-year career and his impact as a mentor to an emerging generation of acclaimed Japanese architects. Most of the featured architects in the show were involved with the reconstruction of Japan after the disastrous earthquake in 2011. However, MOMA stated, “the exhibition will also reflect how the architecture field is responding to current societal change with a combination of strong aesthetic positions and a commitment to users’ emotional needs”. Organized by Pedro Gadanho at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the show will run from March 3rd – July 4th, 2016.
