‘Form Matters’ at Gallery Hyundai

The exhibition provided an overview of the practice’s work over the preceding 25 years. It explored an evolution of projects both built and unbuilt, tracing a series of ideas and development of form; and offered a more in-depth view of a series of representative projects, including The Hepworth Wakefield and Turner Contemporary in Margate, the Stirling Prize winning Museum of Modern Literature in Marbach, Germany, the Neues Museum in Berlin and the Rockbund project on the Bund in Shanghai.

The exhibition included a large amount of primary material, including original sketches, drawings and working models, along with a number of newly created large scale models and drawings. An accompanying catalogue, published by Buchhandlung Walther König, expanded an exploration on the significance of form through a number of essays by David Chipperfield.
