What is generally understood by Modern architecture in China is set to be re‐evaluated across the world with a major exhibition this summer at the RIBA in London and a significant new book by Edward Denison and Guang Yu Ren. Here co‐author and co‐curator of Modernism in China, Edward Denison , outlines why we need to look back to China's Modernist roots in the early 20th century if we are to understand the intense modernisation of the present.
