The most thoroughgoing survey of nearly all of Le Corbusier's
extant projects, beautifully photographed and authoritatively
detailed. Le Corbusier is widely acknowledged as the most
influential architect of the twentieth century. As extensively
researched and documented as his works are, however, they have
never been exhaustively surveyed in photographs until now.
Photographer Richard Pare has crossed the globe for years to
document the extant works of Le Corbusier - from his first villas
in Switzerland to his mid-career works in his role as the first
global architect in locations as far-flung as Argentina and Russia,
and his late works, including his sole North American project, at
Harvard University, and an extensive civic plan for Chandigarh,
India. Le Corbusier: The Built Work provides numerous views of each
project to bring a fuller understanding of the architect's command
of space, sometimes surprising use of materials and color, and the
almost ineffable qualities that only result from a commanding
synthesis of all aspects of design. With an authoritative text by
scholar and curator Jean-Louis Cohen, Le Corbusier: The Built Work
is a groundbreaking opportunity to appreciate the master's work
anew.
