Description from the seller

Tadao Ando: Endeavors - Exclusive Signed Edition with Original Hand-Drawn Sketch

This is a rare and highly collectible opportunity for admirers of contemporary architecture and the legendary Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Tadao Ando. This monumental 400-page catalogue was published for his landmark 10th-anniversary exhibition, "Endeavors," held at The National Art Center, Tokyo in 2017.

Special Features:

Original Hand-Drawn Sketch: This copy features a unique, vibrant drawing by Tadao Ando on the endpaper. Using his signature colored pencil and marker technique, Ando has created a dynamic piece of art, accompanied by his bold signature. This is not a print; it is an original architectural sketch.

Massive 400-Page Volume: An extensive retrospective covering over 50 years of Ando’s career. From the early "Row House in Sumiyoshi" to major international projects like "Punta della Dogana" and the "Chichu Art Museum," this book is a comprehensive archive of his philosophy and "challenge" to architecture.

Bilingual Edition: All texts are provided in both Japanese and English, making it a perfect addition to international collections.

Condition: Excellent. The book has been carefully stored. It includes the original clear protective sleeve, which has kept the cover in great shape. (Please refer to the photos for minor shelf wear on the corners).

Number of pages: 400 pages

Dimensions: 24 x 17.5 x 3.5 cm (Approx. 1.6kg)
