A+U 620 05:22 Francis Kéré

Awarded the Pritzker Prize in 2022, Burkinabé architect Francis Kéré has built his reputation on works that are not only innovative but also sustainable and collaborative in nature. This issue examines his development over the years by profiling his numerous projects for education, health care, social welfare, and the arts, as well as other prominent works such as the Burkina Faso National Assembly, Serpentine Pavilion, National Park of Mali, and Goethe-Institut Dakar. The magazine also features examples of Kéré’s work in exhibition design, furniture objects, and even an otherworldly pavilion in Montana. Four authors contribute illuminating essays on the architect.
