Le livre LE CORBUSIER LE POEME DE L'ANGLE DROIT /FRANCAIS/ANGLAIS, écrit par E. JOAQUIN GALLEGO, édité par HATJE CANTZ coute 49,00 €.
De 1947 à 1953 Le Corbusier à créé une série de lithographies qui peut être considérée à la fois comme la réalisation artistique de sa vision du monde et comme une sorte d'autoportrait.
Ce fac-similé des lithographies originales de 1955, réalisé avec grand soin, permet une meilleure compréhension de la théorie architecturale d'un des plus grands architectes du 20e siècle.
Between 1947 and 1953, Le Corbusier (18871965) produced a series of lithographs and poems that can be regarded as an artistic realization of his worldview. The works have been arranged in such a way that seven rows, one upon the other, result in a picture wall, an iconostasis. Each row is dedicated to a specific topic, ranging from the environment and mental and physical elements to the right angle, with which human beings establish their own order.
The publication presents a meticulously reproduced facsimile of the original lithographs and the poème from 1955. An appendix includes a translation into English. Le Corbusier once stated that his buildings first became possible on the basis of his artistic work, thus the cycle also reveals the architectural achievements of the greatest architect of the 20th century.
