gmp FOCUS: Chongqing Grand Theater in China
焦点系列：重庆大剧院
The Grand Theater's sculptural architecture and its location on a headland above the Yangtze River opposite Chongqing's city center make the building a new landmark for the metropolis. A shell of frosted glass panels and the complexly angled and refractive surfaces allow the building to appear in ever-changing light moods.
This volume of the gmp FOCUS series presents the design for the large opera house by means of texts, images, and plans. Architecture journalist Dirk Meyhöfer discusses the building in an essay.
