The exhibition will be opened by Andrew Makin and Andries Botha.
‘We are in the midst of the great and terrible results of globalization. The importance of place is often lost .… (Peter Rich) reminds us that the world is full of richness that we do not know. He teaches us to think in ways that are unfamiliar.’ -Tod Williams and Billie Tsien, Architects.
Peter Rich is dedicated to the creation of contemporary African architecture. He creates places and spaces that are meaningful, moving and uplifting for all who occupy them. This exhibition traces the development of Peter’s work to date. It showcases drawings, models and photographs of completed projects, as well as design development sketches. Displayed alongside the architectural works are the influences that have shaped Peter and his architecture: his beautiful travel sketches from around the world, his extensive research into space making in Ndebele architecture and examples of African art.
This exhibition was made possible by the generous support of The KwaZulu-Natal Institute for Architecture and Hydraform brick and block machines, Modena, SA's largest Autodesk retailer and Hulamin Building Systems.
