Cities: 10th International Architecture Exhibition

This two-volume catalogue of the 10th International Architecture Exhibition presents an anthology of ideas centred around this year's theme: the meta-city. The changes in the physical and social structures of today's city have resulted in a new kind of civilian agglomeration that extends beyond the traditional form, concept, and boundaries of the city, causing profound transformations in the composition of its population and working habits.

The International Exhibition, curated by Richard Burdett, will focus on the transformations of the cities around the world, featuring New York, London, Berlin, Moscow, Tokyo, Shanghai, Mumbai, Mexico City, Sao Paulo Beirut, Istanbul, Johannesburg, and Lagos. Additionally, the biennale will propound a manifesto for rational development of cities in the 21st century.

This book will be the definitive catalogue of what is perhaps the most important architecture exhibition in the world.
