The critically-themed edition of the journal delves especially into the history, criticism and repercussions of the Metabolist Movement, with articles by several authors that deal directly with various aspects of the topic, as well as the figures involved. Ioanna Angelidou, for instance, writes about correspondence with Hajime Yatsuka, and Ken Tadashi Oshima contributes ‘Metabolist Trajectories’. Also included are an interview with Preston Scott Cohen, architect of a recently completed new wing at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, and reviews of Herzog & de Meuron’s CaixaForum in Madrid and Zaha Hadid’s MAXXI in Rome.

Log 24 is a compilation of architecture criticism that exemplifies the range of criticism today. Encountering buildings, exhibitions, films, and books, twenty authors disentangle the challenges and problems the work poses to the critic and the architect, as well as render an incisive portrait of contemporary architecture.
