Le Corbusier at the Barbican

Michael Kimmelman’s review of the Le Corbusier exhibition stop in London (from today’s NYT) focuses on Britain’s admiration for an architect that never produced a building on its soil. Visitation and interest come against periods of time where the brutalist, concrete heavy, look of the modernist had come into question and viewed unpopular in London. Well worth the read.
