Résumé:

"In his numerous writings Le Corbusier remained uncharacteristically silent about his early career. This book examines his nascent years as a designer and architect, focusing on the period from 1907 to 1922 - the year he changed his name from Pierre Edouard Jeanneret and established his identity as Le Corbusier. The contributors to the book offer in unprecedented detail an account of Le Corbusier's formative years and the cultural, intellectual, and creative concerns that absorbed him as a young artist in Switzerland and Paris." "This book is the catalogue for an exhibition at the Langmatt Foundation in Baden, Switzerland, and the Bard Graduate Center, New York."--Jacket.
