Emanuele Piccardo, Looking at Le Corbusier, 2019

Looking at Le Corbusier is the research realized by the photographer and architecture critic Emanuele Piccardo made from 2007 to 2018, on Le Corbusier’s most significant architectures in France. From the Church of Notre Dame du Haut in Ronchamp to the Unitè d’habitation in Marseille, Nantes and Firminy, passing through the Ville Savoye, the Maisons Jaoul, the apartment of Le Corbusier, the Couvent de la Tourette, ending the journey to Roquebrune Cap Martin, a place of inspiration for the great architect. The journey in the Le Corbusier world is based on the relationship between architecture, its representation and photographic interpretation, a theme that Piccardo has been reflecting on for a decade, up until the foundation of the archphoto.it webzine, which investigates the relationship between architecture and the visual arts.
