David Adjaye divides a former warehouse floor into the domestically scaled rooms of Arario Gallery

摘要

The growing reputation of David Adjaye has hinged on the London architect's longtime relationship with the art world. He has accumulated studio commissions from artists Jake Chapman, Chris Ofili, and Lorna Simpson, and he installed Your Black Horizon at the Venice Biennale in 2005 with Olafur Eliasson. Adjaye's extensive collaboration with Ofili includes the environment he designed for The Upper Room at the Tate Britain in 2007; Ofili, in turn, painted a wall mural in Adjaye's Nobel Peace Center cafe in Oslo and created decorative glass for his new Stephen Lawrence Centre in London.
