Herzlich Willkommen!
Der Architekt Ernest Weissmann (1903-1985) drehte in den Jahren 1929-1933 Amateurfilme mit einer Pathé Motocamera u.a. im Atelier Le Corbusier und Pierre Jeanneret, die bis dato unveröffentlicht sind und Momente aus Le Corbusiers Leben und Alltag einfangen, die man so bislang nicht kennt. Dokumentiert werden darin auch seine Freundschaften etwa mit Pierre Jeanneret, Josep Lluís Sert, Charlotte Perriand, Norman Rice, Kunio Maekawa, Sigfried Giedion u.a. Das Buch zeigt in sechs Kapiteln eindrucksvolle Standbilder der Filme und ordnet sie in einführenden Texten in den jeweiligen historischen und persönlichen Kontext Le Corbusiers ein. Zwei Einleitungen widmen sich der Geschichte des Auffindens dieser Filme sowie dem Leben Ernest Weissmanns und seiner lebenslangen Freundschaft mit Le Corbusier. Eine Trouvaille aus dem Leben Le Corbusiers Mit 80 bislang unveröffentlichten Standbildern Als Softcover (9783035627282), Hardcover (9783035627299) und limitierte Sonderausgabe mit drei separaten Sonderdrucken erhältlich (9783035627305) The book is based on amateur films, shot by the architect Ernest Weissmann (1903-1985) with a Pathé Motocamera in the years 1929-1933 at, among other places, the Atelier Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret.
