Arata Isozaki and Aiko Miyawaki

Arata Isozaki (pictured on the left) is a Japanese architect, husband of Aiko Miyawaki. He is known in Milan for the skyscraper Il Dritto, or Isozaki Tower, a fifty floor, 209 meter tall (686 ft) building. Upon closer inspection, the resemblance between this structure and Miyawaki’s sculptures is evident, both in the harmony of the forms and in the composition of the voids and solids. In the photo, Isozaki and Miyawaki are in the Gori Collection park, which features a large installation by the Japanese artist.
