ISBN: 9780500544228
Description: London: Thames & Hudson, 2013. 29cm., hardcover, 255pp. prof. illus., most in color. Summary : Le Corbusier’s development was inextricably connected to the rise of the century’s most popular visual medium: photography. This remarkable book traces the many ways in which he used photography to define and disseminate his work and ideas around the world. This unique, multifaceted portrait presents the architect and his work in six chapters, each by an expert in a particular aspect of Le Corbusier’s work: a photographic biography; his secret travel photographs; promotional photography; his approach to the printed page; his use of large-scale imagery in his buildings and exhibitions; and contemporary photographic interpretations of his work. The candid, personal, artistic and often unexpected images that appear in this volume offer new insights and ways to appreciate the man and architect. This is the vital ‘missing volume’ in any Le Corbusier aficionado’s library.
