LE CORBUSIER. Conversations with Architecture Students. Paris: Les Éditions de Minuit, [1957]. — Square 8vo, 205 x 205: (36 ff.). Publisher’s yellow cloth binding, with an illustrated dust jacket. New edition published in the “Les Cahiers Forces vives” collection, featuring a charming layout designed by Jean Petit. The original was published in 1943. It is “an indictment of academicism in architectural education and practice, which ‘is a way of not thinking that suits those who fear the agonizing moments of invention,’ to which Le Corbusier opposes his “faith in the built environment.” Le Corbusier sets forth the essence of his thought and conviction. The principles that the famous architect has advocated for over thirty years are clearly stated here, without complacency ” (Frank Elgar, Éditions de Minuit website). One of 80 numbered copies on vellum paper (No. 34), complete with the illustrated dust jacket. Very well-preserved copy.
