Today, the elegant house in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in southern France is an icon of modernism. In 1937, Le Corbusier discovered the place and the "Maison en Bord de Mer". Inspired by the genius of the place and the light on the Côte d'Azur, he created a total of five large-format wall paintings there from 1938 onwards, some of which complement the building congenially, while others set counterpoints. In 1952, he built his Cabanon nearby and decorated it with murals as well. The book by the well-known architectural historian Tim Benton documents Le Corbusier's artwork at this special place and places it in his overall oeuvre. The fascinating photographs by Manuel Bougot capture the special atmosphere of the villa Le Corbusier's painting is lesser known but was formative for his lifelong preoccupation with polychromy After extensive renovation work until 2021, E 1027, as well as the Cabanon, is open to the public again Language: GermanCountry/Region of Manufacture: CHItem Height: 280mmItem Length: 220mmItem Weight: 794gAuthor: Tim BentonGenre: Arts & PhotographyTopic: Architecture & AntiquesRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
