« Theme: In an apartment. » (Letter from Le Corbusier to his mother, July 3, 1935)

Mélanie Feuvrier et Hugo Fortin

2021, June, 3rd > 26 Maison La Roche

In numerous letters to family and friends, Le Corbusier willingly plays the game of association of ideas and follows the thread of his imagination. He moves from one place to another and speaks of the resonances they have with each other in his mind and in his memories. During his first summer in his new apartment on Nungesser street in Boulogne, the garden on the roof-top terrace reminds him of the in Switzerland. He evokes this resemblance like a retinal persistence to which -precise or vague- emotions and memories are tied up.

It is this intuition that we explore in our exhibition by moving the place of our residency (the apartment-atelier on Nungesser et Coli street in Boulogne) into that of the exhibition (the Maison La Roche in Paris). By telescoping the apartment-atelier in an abstract way (the choice of colors and the repetition of the mark left on the floor by the door of the bedroom) within the Maison La Roche, we insist on this essential fact that each place we visit is always inhabited by our own ghosts. To be present somewhere is always projecting other places and bringing back their irreparable absence.

Meet the artists on Saturday, June 5 and 26, 2021 at maison La Roche.

An exhibition in partnership with the Fondation Le Corbusier and the Beaux-arts de Paris.
