Description:
Le Corbusier & Lucien Hervé The Architect & The Photographer: A Dialogue recounts the collaboration between these two groundbreaking Modernists, the architect and his official photographer.
Le Corbusier & Lucien Hervé The Architect & The Photographer: A Dialogue presents sixteen of Le Corbusier's most iconic buildings using Hervé's edited sheets of contact prints as visual references. The architect's innovative structures and materials are highlighted by Hervé's dynamic and expressive perspectives, sharp contrasts of black and white, and frequent close-ups of structural details and textures. The viewer's eye, moving across the sheets, gradually discovers forms, defined spaces, and the play of light and shadow - the cinematic dimension inherent in Le Corbusier's architecture.
This album of 1200 of Hervé's carefully edited, sequenced and labelled contact prints is also available in French and German.
