“Extolling the Virtues of Peach Blossoms over Pine Needles »
桃花に松葉の美徳を称えて
Japanese follows English / 日本語の情報は下にあります
An episode of the illustrated biography of Prince Shotoku by Hata no Chitei, exhibited at the The Gallery of Horyuji Treasures, tells the story of the young prince being asked by his father which he likes better, peach blossoms or pine needles. Shotoku answered that he preferred needles: “Because the beauty of peach blossoms is only temporary, but pine needles remain fresh and green for a hundred years”. How do we arrange and compare objects, images or experiences in a world of overproduction, where the alternative has been turned into business? What does the ephemeral means now, when sustainability belongs to the mainstream?
― Karine Fauchard / Lazar Lyutakov

法隆寺宝物館に展示されている秦致貞の《聖徳太子絵伝》には、幼い太子が父から桃花と松葉のどちらがよいかと問われたときの逸話が描かれている。聖徳太子は「松葉のほうがよい」と言い、「桃花の美しさはひとときのものだが、松葉は百年経ってもみずみずしいままだから」と応じたという。大量生産の世界でオルタナティブ（代替可能性）がビジネスへと転化されるなか、ものやイメージ、体験をどのように並べ、比べることができるのだろうか。サステナビリティ（持続可能性）が主流となった今、エフェメラル（儚さ）とはどのような意味をもつのだろうか。

Models Talk: CCA c/o Tokyo video series
Models Talk is a new three-part video series that the CCA produced together with architectural curator and editor Kayoko Ota (Tokyo) and Studio GROSS (Tokyo and Berlin), as part of our CCA c/o Tokyo program.
Socially engaged approaches in architecture, including participatory design, reprogramming, and minimum intervention, are increasingly common—but can often yield predictable results. This series of videos focuses instead on works that challenge convention in order to address current urban issues, and uses the particularities of film as a format to convey the ideas defining these works. In each video one architect leads the viewer through a model that acts as a guide by way of the problems, concepts, and inventive propositions that underlie the work.
Motivated by the desire to illustrate architectural concepts and make them more easily accessible, Models Talk gives a platform to three architects working through contemporary challenges to express their proposals.
In Recipe for Mixed Rice (10 minutes), the viewer is dropped first with Kumiko Inui on a train through Nobeoka, then through her approach to designing for its train station: an inclusive workshop that asks how space can be “freed up, not filled.” Kazuko Akamatsu reveals a similarly generous exercise in urban redevelopment in A Matter of Void (9 minutes). “Because [Shibuya is] such a dynamic place, I thought it would be more appropriate to create an environment where people can feel they’re in the middle of this constantly moving city.” Erika Nakagawa, then, conceives of any new project as “an addition to its surrounding environment” in A Neighbourhood in A House (13 minutes). The series reveals a shared empathy in how these contemporary practitioners approach design questions and the role of documentary film as an intimate vehicle behind-the-scenes of these processes.
