You don't always have to show art in what's called a white box; you can have a kind of complexity within an exhibit which actually respects the art as well.

Education, housing and hospitals are the most important things for society.

When I first came to Guangzhou in 1981, it seemed such a hard and dour place with everyone in Chairman Mao uniforms.

I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think.

I find industrial cities exciting. I like their toughness.

I loved London. In the 1970s... it was very exciting, really wild.

All the privileged can travel, see different worlds, not everyone can. I think it is important for people to have an interesting locale nearby.
