Ce musée extraordinaire est venu donner un projet, et un sens, à la Villa Méditerranée construite sur l’esplanade du Mucem comme signe d’une liaison des deux rives qui n’a jamais abouti. Pierre Fiastre, qui fut un acteur de cette histoire, fait raconter ici cette aventure par le bâtiment lui-même, qui s’exprime à la première personne. Un ensemble de croquis et de très belles photographies permet en outre de suivre son évolution visuelle. Un livre passionnant pour tous les amoureux de Marseille.

Summary:
The concept of an encyclopedic museum was born of the Enlightenment, a manifestation of society's growing belief that the spread of knowledge and the promotion of intellectual inquiry were crucial to human development and the future of a rational society. With Museums Matter, James Cuno, president and director of the Art Institute of Chicago, takes us on a brief tour of the modern museum, from the creation of the British Museum - the archetypal encyclopedic collection - to the present, when major museums host millions of visitors annually and play a major role in the cultural lives of their cities. Engaging with thinkers such as Edward Said and Martha Nussbaum, and drawing on examples from the politics of India to the destruction of the Bramiyan Buddhas to the history of trade and travel, Cuno makes a case for the encyclopedic museum as a truly cosmopolitan institution, promoting tolerance, understanding, and a shared sense of history - values that are essential in our ever more globalized age.

Summary:
Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings, and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier's last built work. This dwelling, which is also a museum, was initiated by Zurich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With its abstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architect in which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier is clearly legible. From the first ideas and sketches from and beyond, the genesis of this exceptional building - the completion of which the architect did not live to see - is presented with illustrations and documents. This book explains the significance of the pavilion, which differs strongly from the beton brut of Le Corbusier's late work, in terms of its position as one of the architect's central and forward-looking works.
