Introduction

As one of the most important architects in contemporary Chinese architecture, Zhang Yonghe, in addition to his regional and critical architectural practice, is also an architectural educator who transcends fields beyond architecture, including installations, stages, furniture, products, clothing, ornaments, and sweets, etc.

The Wen Sin Art Foundation was honored to invite him to Wen Sin Art Institute to share his thoughts and creations on architecture and to talk with Nguyen Ching Yue and Feng Guoan. The theme of the conversation comes from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? , a three-time Pulitzer Prize-winning stage play by Edward Albee, a famous American playwright. Albee believes that art should break boundaries while changing the audience's perception of things, to reflect on Zhang Yong's personal connections to the diverse creative landscape beyond architectural practice and academia.
