An exposition dedicated to creativity of the pioneering modernist architect Le Corbusier has been opened in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. The organizers of the exhibition have tried their best to show all sides of his talent as an architect, an artist, a book author and a magazine publisher.
It was Le Corbusier who devised the first standard houses, which could be produced in blocks in advance at a plant, and then assembled on-site like a construction kit.
Le Corbusier is an outstanding French architect, one of the most authoritative masters of modern architecture. His paintings, graphic works, drawings and models of buildings — a few hundred exhibits — tell about different stages in creativity of the great modernist.
The exhibition runs till November 18.
