Dream Temple

Mariko Mori, Miuccia Prada

description

A very deluxe exhibition catalogue / artists' book published in conjunction with show held May 22 - June 15, 1999. Lavish reproductions and texts by Mori. "Tying the know between dream and technology, past and present, spirit and body, seems to me the main principal of Mariko Mori's art. Her 'transcription' of an ancient Japanese monument such as the Yumedono (739 A.D.), the Dream Temple of the Buddhist monastery of Horyuji, reimagined and reconceived according to a contemporary aesthetic, is a journey into the utopian realms of physical and psychic beauty. But it is also an adventure into the future, one that rests upon the supertechnological qualities of a three-dimensional virtual reality in which one ma intuit the dimensions of history to come..." -- from introduction by Miuccia Prada.
