Summary:

"Le Corbusier avait bien compris les multiples pouvoirs de la photographie, jouant sur un vaste répertoire iconographique pour illustrer ses écrits et ses expositions. Mais il avait surtout saisi l'efficacité de la photographie pour construire son image et diffuser ses idées à travers le monde, notamment grâce aux clichés de photographes aussi talentueux que Lucien Hervé et René Burri. Sont ici reproduits plus de 400 documents : photos promotionnelles, documentaires ou artistiques, photos personnelles souvent inédites, photos de voyages et photos de famille, mais aussi collages monumentaux, documents d'époque et fac-similés de ses publications. On y découvrira en outre la prégnance de l'oeuvre de Le Corbusier sur la photographie contemporaine à travers le regard de Stéphane Couturier, Olivo Barbieri, Thomas Flechtner ou Hiroshi Sugimoto. Réalisé par des spécialistes internationaux de Le Corbusier, ce livre nous fait entrer dans l'oeil de l'architecte et apporte un nouveau point de vue sur sa création."--Page 4 of cover.
