| Sumario: | [EN] Sculpture played a significant role in Le Corbusier's architectural thinking, but also interested him as an artist and collector. In this article, we propose to explore Le Corbusier's interest in displaying sculpture in a number of exhibition pavilions he designed, in some of his collectors' interiors and gardens, and in his museum projects. The architect was not indifferent to the relationship between sculpture and space, to the nature of the pedestal, nor did he neglect the notions of viewpoints and dialogue between art and the visitor. Le Corbusier often chose specific sculptors, cubists and purists (in particular Jacques Lipchitz, Henri Laurens and, of course, his own creations from the 1940s onwards) and displayed them in an unconventional way in the interior, for example on the corner of a wall and high up, breaking with bourgeois practice but also with the habits of the architects and designers of the so-called Art Deco period. |
