China has always had an intricate relationship with materialism, says one of the nation's foremost modern architects, Yung Ho Chang.
"At school, we were taught about Marxism's dialectical materialism, which was absurd and incomprehensible at a time of scarcity," he says. "Today, a preoccupation with consumption and material comfort saturates our society."
Chang, 56, has spent almost three decades incorporating modern architecture into the Chinese context. On Sunday, a retrospective of his career will open at Ullens Centre for Contemporary Art (UCCA) in Beijing, featuring more than 40 models, 270 drawings and six installation works dating from the early 1980s to today.
