Resumen del libro

Le Corbusier, the brilliant architect of twentiethÐcentury, always carried along a sketchbook, a kind of diary in which, observing the grand tour tradition and the fads of famous nineteenth century travellers, he amassed observations, calculations, drawings of works and designs, carefully jotting down his meetings, experiences, reflections. The notebooks forming the Voyages dOrient published in partnership with the Fondation Le Corbusier were archived under this name by the architect himself and only rediscovered in 1994. They follow the architects 1911 travels to the Balkans, Istanbul, Prague, Bucharest, Greece, all the way to Italy, Brindisi, Naples, Rome, until they mysteriously break off in Florence. 'Orient here is the broad term that refers to the first classicism, and for Le Corbusier approaching antiquity meant coming into contact with the clearly defined forms of Greek temples, of Islamic Istanbul, of the Roman city, seeking the point where modernism and classicism meet. The edition features a detailed transcription of the masters autograph texts. The introductory notes, by Giuliano Gresleri, offer a significant opportunity to get to know one of the greatest architects of the Modern Movement.
