“Compared to cities, rural areas still preserve most of China’s culture and heritage. The cities are more modern, but more or less the same as many other international cities... The idea is to attract more for the next step, for further investments or further initiatives from the local community.”
For the past seven years, architect Xu Tiantian has collaborated with local communities and municipal governments to realize dozens of minimally invasive and often reversible interventions—what she refers to as “architectural acupuncture”—in the mountainous landscape Songyang, a county in China situated southwest of Shanghai.
Perhaps the most poetic of all of Xu’s insertions is the Bamboo Theater, a performance stage created by bending and roping up bamboo trees to form a domed canopy. Beyond providing a communal cultural space for locals near the village of HengKeng, the project also vividly demonstrates that an architecture made entirely of renewable natural resources is conceivable.
#ReuseRenewRecycle, an exhibition that takes a look at some of the most imaginative architectural work in China today, is on view now! Learn more at mo.ma/architecturechina.

It is only after seeing “the tree that knocks the moon” that one knows how beautiful Taiwan really is.
There is a Taiwania tree that is 23 stories tall. To record how high a tree is, besides climbing up it you can also apply an algorithm using airborne LiDAR data. There was also cross-national cooperation with the Australian canopy photographer Steven Pearce to complete this difficult task.
In search of the tallest trees, in 2017 the release of the results of the “Qilan Taiwania ‘Three Sisters’ isometric photograph project” caused a sensation. These Taiwania trees, over 800 years old, soar majestically into the sky and amaze everyone who sees them.
Five years later there is an update, and in about two months isometric photographs of the 79.1-meter tall Taoshan giant tree in Shei-Pa National Park will be released. They should be fascinating.
This woodblock print shows the 12th-century warrior Taira no Kiyomori being haunted by the ghosts of the enemies he has ruthlessly killed during his lifetime.
Kiyomori stands on the veranda of his palace looking out over his snow-covered garden. In his vision the trees, hillocks and even the lanterns have been transformed into skulls and skeletons.
In this print Kiyomori is depicted as the Osaka-based kabuki actor Nakamura Utaemon IV (1769–1852), who performed this role in the first month of 1845.

CHAPTER I.
The Period
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of
despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in
short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
