Tadao Ando explores the picturesque qualities of architecture and landscape in the LANGEN foundation outside Düsseldorf
By Suzanne Stephens
It may strike some as a bit ironic to speak of the picturesque in discussing a museum executed by a Japanese architect for a defunct NATO base in Germany. Yet that description easily comes to mind when first viewing the Langen Foundation, a small, 32,635-square-foot, concrete museum designed by Tadao Ando for an art park near Düsseldorf. Although several centuries have passed since the term picturesque came into usage in England, it can still be applied today.
