In 1949, the photographer Lucien Hervé (1910–2007) took a
picture of an innovative apartment building in Marseille, France, and sent it
to the building’s architect, Le Corbusier (1887–1965). Le Corbusier responded
by asking Hervé to become his official photographer. This book recounts the
creative collaboration between these two groundbreaking Modernists. The author
takes the reader on a tour of sixteen of Le Corbusier’s most iconic buildings
using Hervé’s edited sheets of contact prints as visual guides. These sheets,
which became an effective tool in the collaborative dissemination of Le
Corbusier’s work, capture Hervé’s dynamic perspectives and dramatic use of
light. His sequencing of the individual prints creates an exhilarating rhythm
that powerfully showcases the architect’s novel forms and materials.
