Gate of Stone
In 2008, Tadao Ando (b. 1941) designed a series of geometrically structured buildings in response to the topography and views of eastern Jeju Island. Located at the boundary where the sea meets the land, the Glass House stands in a site defined by strong opposing winds. Ando named this building Gate of Wind to reflect its environmental character. Nearby, the Yumin Art Nouveau Museum was built on a basalt stone islet and was named Gate of Stone. Facing one another, the two buildings were conceived as a single architectural series, embodying the contrasting yet complementary concepts of yang and yin.
This special exhibition highlights the valuable process through which Tadao Ando has pursued harmony between architecture, art, and nature, presenting archival materials and architectural photographs accumulated during the design process in 2008.
