Zaha Hadid Awarded Praemium Imperiale for Architecture by the Japan Art Association

By Bustler Editors|

Thursday, Sep 24, 2009

British Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid has been awarded the prestigious Praemium Imperiale Award for Architecture by the Japan Art Association.

“It is indeed an honor to receive this recognition from the Japan Art Association.” said Hadid. “Working in Japan has been critical to the development of my work around the world. I will always be grateful for this support early in my career. My Japanese clients shared a passion for architecture - allowing us to investigate many things and design very powerful projects, interesting in their complexity and essential in developing our repertoire of work. Through our architecture, we can enthuse people and make them excited about new ideas.”
