{"product_id":"modern-architecture-in-japan","title":"Modern Architecture in Japan","description":"\u003cp\u003eManfredo Tafuri (1935–1994), the celebrated Italian architectural historian, published L’architettura moderna in Giappone in 1964. At the time, Tafuri was twenty-nine years old and had not visited Japan. His slim volume on the country’s postwar architecture was the first in a series of guidebooks on contemporary architecture under the direction of Leonardo Benevolo. Here, translated into English for the first time, the book presents a rare outsider’s view of the Metabolist movement and figures such as Kenzō Tange by one of the most astute critics of the second part of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"search-metadata\"\u003eManfredo Tafuri 9781913620837\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hochparterre Bücher","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53181858349384,"sku":"3255097810","price":38.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0946\/0255\/9816\/files\/untitled-1-28.jpg?v=1779811382","url":"https:\/\/www.hochparterre-buecher.ch\/products\/modern-architecture-in-japan","provider":"Hochparterre Bücher","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
