The award ceremony for the Grand Prix AFEX 2020 and 2021 took place on the 20th May live from the Biennale de Venise.
Reda Amalou, founder and partner of AW² and president of the jury for the Grand Prix AFEX 2021, presented Tsuyoshi Tane with the award for the Hirosaki Museum Of Contemporary Art, stating:
“When an architect inserts a project into a site, reuses a building intelligently, tells a story through the design, reflects on the programme and reinvents the form with materials, then architecture makes sense and creates emotion.”
