Koolhaas/Obrist. Project Japan. Metabolism Talks by Hans Ulrich Obrist

Koolhaas/Obrist. Project Japan. Metabolism Talks by Hans Ulrich Obrist

Architect Rem Koolhaas and curator Hans Ulrich Obrist compile a history of Metabolism: the first non-Western avant-garde architecture, born out of postwar Tokyo. Extensive interviews and rare photographs introduce the movement and shed light on the groups futuristic vision for the future; a dream of cities that would grow, reproduce, and transform in response to their environment.

"Project Japan features hundreds of fantastic never-before-seen images that tell the 20th Century history of Japan through its architecture" * Yellow Magazine *
