Description from the seller

Tadao Ando - Endeavors (with Original Drawing & Signature)

A rare and highly collectible opportunity for admirers of contemporary architecture and Japanese art.
This volume, "Endeavors," serves as a comprehensive look into the philosophy and career of the Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando.

Original Artwork: Includes a hand-drawn architectural sketch by Tadao Ando, executed with his signature bold lines and colored crayon/pencil.
Autographed: Hand-signed by the architect.

Tadao Ando is renowned for his "haiku" effect: emphasizing nothingness and empty space to represent the beauty of simplicity.
This book, Endeavors, was published in conjunction with his major exhibition at the National Art Center, Tokyo.
It chronicles his most ambitious projects, from the "Church of the Light" to his transformative work on the island of Naoshima.

The inclusion of an original sketch—likely depicting one of his iconic geometric structures or a conceptual vista—elevates this from a standard publication to a unique collector's piece. Ando’s sketches are coveted by museums and private collectors worldwide for their raw, energetic insight into his creative process.
