Author: Veronique BooneThe book is based on amateur films, shot by the architect Ernest Weissmann with a Pathé Motocamera in the years 1929-1933 at the Atelier Le Corbusier & Pierr e Jeanneret. These films capture never-before-seen moments from Le Corbusier's life. It also documents his friendships with Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand, Norman Rice, & others. Across six chapters, the book shows stills from these films and places them in the respective historical and personal context of Le Corbusier. Two introductions are devoted to the history of these pioneering amateur films and to Ernest Weissmann's life and his life-long relationship with Le Corbusier. ISBN 9783035627299.
