    Jonathan M. Reynolds
  • Publication Details

    Book, University of California Press, 2001
  • Description

    Jonathan Reynolds illuminates Maekawa’s role as a bridge between prewar and postwar architecture in Japan, focusing particularly on how he influenced modernism’s ambivalence regarding “tradition” and contemporary practice and the importance of technology in modernist design and ideology. It will also attract readers interested in twentieth-century Japan, for in addition to highlighting Maekawa’s architectural career, Reynolds portrays the broader cultural context within which Maekawa and other Japanese architects and artists sought to be heard and recognized.
