An exquisite work of art in its own right  it is the result of ten years collaboration between the English photographer Richard Pare and the internationally renowned architect Tadao Ando. Japans leading architect  Tadao Ando (b 1941) was recently awarded the 1995 Pritzker Architecture Prize for his consistent and significant contributions to the built environment. This book includes twenty-seven of Andos buildings  completed over the last decade  including such notable projects as the Kidosaki House  Tokyo  1986  the Church on the Water  Hokkaido  1988  the Naoshima Contemporary Art Museum and Annexe  1992 and 1995  and the recently completed buildings for Benetton in Treviso  Italy  1995  and the Meditation Space for Unesco  Paris  1995. Richard Pares images break with previous conventions of architectural representation; they convey his interest in distilling the essence of Tadao Andos buildings rather than producing literal portraits. Pare concentrates on the subtle effects that natural light has on architecture; working without the aid of artificial effects he captures as directly as possible the colour and atmosphere of Andos spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652372324405,"sku":"ByrdShop_0714833746","price":197.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780714833743.jpg?v=1781851323","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/tadao-ando-the-colours-of-light-9780714833743","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
