Diverse Practices in Contemporary Chinese Architecture

Contemporary architects are confronted with the more diverse background of the era and the tougher reality. Now challenges and opportunities coexist. Facing with such issues as history, rural problem, habitation, new technology, contemporary Chinese architects get involved with practice in multi approaches. From Make-shift to pragmatism, from experimental architecture to fabrica loci, from cultural assimilation to Retour à tradition, contemporary Chinese architecture has arrived at the threshold to review the practice in the past decades. Looking into the coming further, this exhibition presents the most significant projects, covering fields like architecture renovation, rural construction, housing, digital design. These 30 projects form a parade of the diverse contemporary Chinese architecture and a bird’s-eye view of the profession and general social condition.
