Architectural vision
Arata Isozaki: China Through the Eyes of a World Citizen opened at the Art Museum of Central Academy of Fine Arts, a building the late Japanese architect designed himself. Its gray facade and elegantly curved silhouette have made it a landmark in the capital city's northeastern corner.
Running until Aug 24, the exhibition highlights 10 architectural and urban planning projects which Isozaki worked on in China over three decades. It shows how he related to history in architectural design, addressed public concerns, and conducted dialogues through space.
Another exhibition that opened at the same time, Upstreaming, features works of architects who once studied at the Central Academy of Fine Arts.
9:30 am-5:30 pm, closed on Mondays. 8 Huajiadi Nan Jie, Chaoyang district, Beijing. 010-6477-1575.
