Le Corbusier and Sardinian-born sculptor Costatino Nivola met in
1946 in New York. The Franco-Swiss architect had been living there
in exile since 1939 and was working with a team around Oscar
Niemeyer on the project for the United Nations headquarters. Their
meeting marked the beginning of a life-long friendship between the
two, with Le Corbusier sharing Nivola's Greenwich Village studio
while working on the United Nations project and, in 1950, creating
two murals in the kitchen of Nivola s East Hampton home. The artist
put together a collection of some 300 drawings, six paintings, and
six sculptures by his architect friend which today are held in
various places across Europe and America. This book tells the story
of the collection and explores its significance, thus contributing
to the understanding of the evolution of Le Corbusier's visual art
and its impact on the reception of his work in America. Text in
Italian.
