In the summer of 2002 the Museum of Modern Art in Valencia held the first major exhibition of John Pawson's work.
The opening section of the exhibition was divided into a number of
spatial themes - mass, light, structure, ritual, landscape, order,
containment, repetition, volume, essence, expression. Subsequent
sections included an exploration of the materials constant to Pawson's
treatment of space - stone, wood, glass and metal - and a detailed
examination of a number of key recent projects.
The show concluded with a photographic essay by Christoph Kicherer,
commissioned for the exhibition, of the twelfth century Cistercian
abbey of Le Thoronet.
