Résumé:
Spanning urban models, architecture and art, the work of Ma Yansong (MAD architects) is devoted to the relationship between humans and nature; his visionary ideas are at the forefront of architecture in China. The close relationship between man and nature through architecture has been the most distinguishing feature of eastern architecture with respect to western architecture. However, this relationship seems to have been lost in today’s China. Ma Yansong retakes it in all his projects, and not only with living elements, with the plants that invade some of his buildings, but through much more subtle abstract references. Ma Yansong’s architecture constantly moves from (global) modernity to (local) tradition, integrating traditional cultural concepts into truly audacious, almost futuristic organic shapes, created based on the most advanced technology.
