This exhibition features the Pritzker Prize award winning Japanese architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa of SANAA, located in Tokyo. Kazuyo Sejima, who has also been the Director of the 12th International Architecture Biennale in Venice this year, together with Ryue Nishizawa, follow in their projects common ideas. One is the transition between interior and exterior space. Their architecture is often characterized by a transparency that questions boundaries between interior and exterior. Another one is the building program, the result of a diagrammatic architecture, for which they have gained international recognition.
One large work by the Italian artist Walter Niedermayr from Bolzano will be shown in the exhibition. Niedermayr's artwork produces a new perspective on SANAA's buildings and stimulates the ongoing artistic dialogue between them.
The exhibition gives an insight to SANAA's work, the subtle interplay of light and materials and the relation between the organization of the program, the way people use it, and the materialization; the architectural form.
