Hommage au passé flamboyant de Lyon, la thématique de cette métamorphose est la soie : ornant plafonds, portes et murs, les fameux motifs floraux des métiers à tisser, issus des archives des soieries Tassinari & Chatel, sont repris avec originalité. Cet ouvrage retrace le formidable travail de Patrick Norguet et son agence qui ont su insufflé une nouvelle idée du luxe à cet hôtel et lui offrir ainsi sa cinquième étoile.

Summary:
Cette publication propose une synthèse des aspects fondamentaux du travail de Le Corbusier – théoricien, artiste, architecte – dont les apports ont été déterminants pour la conception des lieux d’exposition au XXème siècle. A travers un parcours chronologique et thématique, le catalogue présente les étapes les plus significatives de la recherche et création d’un nouvel espace architectural, en même temps plastique et sensoriel, lié à la phénoménologie du dynamisme perceptif. Le Corbusier expose, montre ainsi le rapport entre les recherches plastiques de Charles-Edouard Jeanneret – le nom de naissance de Le Corbusier, celui-ci étant son pseudonyme – et l’intégration progressive dans son oeuvre d’éléments de la perception de l’espace en tant que catégorie plastique. Un ensemble d’oeuvres précoces unit ces deux pôles: la maison de l’artiste apporte les données initiales, l’existence d’une collection d’art moderne fonde le nouvel art d’habiter, l’expérience du pavillon d’exposition suscite la recherche d’un programme d’aménagement intérieur minimum où l’oeuvre plastique et la peinture murale constituent le point de départ, le musée étant le véritable programme de l’architecture moderne. Jeanneret, le peintre, a choisi un processus d’exposition expérimental tout au long de sa vie de créateur, en partant d’une activité critique et développant une série de propositions très originales pour la présentation de ses oeuvres plastiques, que ce soit des affiches, des lithographies, des dessins, des sculptures ou des tapis, et surtout ses tableaux.

Until 1938 he worked in Europe, ten years of which he cooperated with a small group surrounding the Krefeld collector and silk manufacturer Hermann Lange. During this extraordinary long term collaboration between Mies van der Rohe and his partner Lilly Reich with the Krefeld friends numerous important buildings were designed that are extensively presented in this book. Mies van der Rohe's planned but not realized projects are introduced with large-size computerized visualisations that have never been published before. This publication illuminates the close relationship of the architect and the Velvet and Silk City and gives fascinating insight into Mies van der Rohe's work.
