The main purpose of the article is to present the works of the youngest architects of the Second Wave and try to characterize them. Examples illustrating the article are the realizations of such offices as: META-Project (Wang Shuo), TAOA (Tao Lei), ZAO/standardarchitecture (Zhang Ke), Zhao Yang Architects and DnA_Design and Architecture (Xu Tiantian). Selected projects are certainly an inspiring example of the experimental Chinese architecture of recent years – critical architecture, which in response to the mistakes of previous years, associated with extensive modernization of cities, tried to rebuild the relationship with the lost tradition, direct and focus its attention to problems of locality and man and his heritage in the modern world. The article was compiled on the basis of source materials obtained directly from architectural offices as part of the author’s work on the exhibition Contemporary Architecture of China, Localized Modernism. The author together with prof. Wang Lu (Tsinghua Univ., Beijing) were co-curators of this first presentation of Chinese architecture in Poland. The exhibition was presented at the Manggha Museum, its opening was accompanied by the Architecture Biennial in Krakow in 2017.}, type={Artykuł}, title={Contemporary Chinese architecture of the second wave}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/130345/PDF-MASTER/Teka-2018-12.pdf}, keywords={Chinese architecture, modernism, contemporary architecture}, }
