Osamu Ishiyama


Black Box of Architectural Technology


'86 Jun.10-Jul.3

This exhibition features models, photographic panels and drawings of eighteen of Ishiyama's main projects, such as his debut work "Gen-an"(1975), and his later "Egg-shaped Dome"(1981) and "A Series of Works for Matsuzakicho"(1985). Ishiyama's architecture is characterized by a unique style which defies simple typology or concern on systems of architectural production and distribution, as well as upon the functions of "technique" and "materials" in architectural production. The exhibition offers an complete view of the atypical world of Ishiyama.
