Sou Fujimoto is one of Japan’s most renowned architects. Active in Tokyo, Paris, and Shenzhen, Fujimoto has created architecture around the world, and has been involved in projects ranging from private homes to universities, commercial spaces, hotels, and multipurpose complexes. Among his most notable interventions are L’Arbre Blanc (The White Tree) in Montpellier, France, in 2019, and the 2021 House of Music, Hungary (Budapest). This is the first major retrospective of Fujimoto’s work, and features many of his most important projects, from his early career to his current works. Scale models, plans, and documentary photographs will be juxtaposed with full-scale models and installations in an architectural exhibition that promises a first-hand visual and spatial experience of the essence of Fujimoto’s oeuvre.
