Residential Buildings. The Poetry of the Everyday.

Kazunari Sakamoto, born 1943, is one of Japan's most important housing architects. For the first time in Europe, his work is to be presented in the context of a wide-ranging exhibition. Recipient of the Togo Murano Award and the Institute of Japan Award, the architect, Kazuo Sinohara's successor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, has been exploring the seemingly self-evident for 35 years. Sakamoto's residential buildings embody his ideas, which were developed in dialogue with the philosopher Koji Taki: the until now unnoticed "free space" of the everyday. These are multi-layered constructions that do not, in contrast to Tadao Ando's flawless exposed concrete surfaces, comply with classical aesthetic concepts. With tremendous unity and reference to social contexts, Sakamoto has been able to achieve spatial openness beyond mere transparency via glass.

The exhibition will be shown in cooperation with the Deutscher Werkbund Bayern e.V. and the Japan Foundation.

To supplement the exhibition, Kazunari Sakamoto will hold a talk on November 5, 2004 at 06.30 pm.
