Evighed i forgængeligheden: japansk havekunst og arkitekturhistorie
The book aims to shed light on Japanese architecture and horticulture from the earliest traces to the country’s opening to the West in the middle of the 19th century. It has not been seen before that an ambitious overall presentation of the relationship between Japanese history has been made, where architecture inscribes in an analysis of the relationship between contemporary thinking and how this found its expression in the concrete works and, conversely, its starting point in the concrete. The book’s rich illustrative drawings are also drawings for books and provide uniformity throughout the book. This theme, perhaps more than anything else, became what they wanted to express in their visual arts, architecture, gardening and literature. It is, therefore, in this light that the history of architecture and gardening will be interpreted in relation to central aesthetic concepts such as imperfection, imbalance, simplicity, loneliness, and poverty.
