KOOLHAAS/OBRIST. PROJECT JAPAN. METABOLISM TALKS

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 group’s futuristic vision for the future; a dream of cities that would grow, reproduce, and transform in response to their environment.
