Encounters – with Kazuo Shinohara's Umbrella House [work in progress]
●
'Encounters' is an artist's book about Kazuo Shinohara's 1961 Umbrella House. Bringing together contemporary responses to the building by 14 international artists, architects and writers, the project offers new, expansive readings of Shinohara's work. A roundtable discussion in May 2024 will generate a central text for the publication and establish a thematic framework for production and design. A launch event and exhibition will be held at Passengers, London in 2025.
