One of the greats of architecture, Le Corbusier, now has an enormous monograph available. At 768 pages with 1000 colour illustrations and 1000 black and white illustrations, it might take a while to get through it, but man, I think it would be worth the time spent.
- A spectacular visual biography of the life and work of Le Corbusier (1887โ1965), one of Modernism’s most influential architects, urban planners, and theorists
- Approximately 2,000 images and documents, many previously unpublished, feature his major built works, urban plans, paintings, publications, and furniture as well as sketches, archival photographs, and personal correspondence
- Rarely seen photographs and correspondence shed new light on Le Corbusierโs relationships with Josephine Baker, Eileen Gray, Fernand Léger, Pablo Picasso, Jean Prouvé, and many others
