Summary:
A travers les abondantes archives de la Fondation HCB, ce livre retrace et analyse un des moments clés de la carrière d'Henri Cartier-Bresson, le séjour en Chine, de décembre 1948 à septembre 1949. Suite à une commande de Life magazine, et peu après la création de l'agence coopérative Magnum, HCB réalise ce voyage au moment de la transition entre le régime nationaliste de Chiang Kaï-shek et le régime communiste de Mao Zedong. Plus que des photographies dites « de reportage », les images qui en résultent, dont beaucoup sont restées parmi ses plus célèbres, témoignent d'événements marquants, de circonstances sociales et de modes de vie qui vont disparaître, et surtout retiennent l'attention par leurs qualités empathiques et poétiques. Marqué par le pays et sa culture, comme par les mutations politiques de l'époque, HCB retournera en Chine en 1958 et constatera les effets du changement de régime. Elargissant le propos du livre, ce second séjour vient ici compléter le premier, à la fois en résonance et en contraste.

Summary:
In 2023, the new Maison de la Chine was opened as part of the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris (CIUP), the French capital’s famous campus of student residencies founded in 1925. Designed by Beijing-based Atelier Feichang Jianzhu (Atelier FCJZ) and realized in collaboration with the French architecture firm Coldefy, the building continues the tradition of national pavilions within the CIUP. The Maison de la Chine’s design bears the DNA of traditional Chinese architecture, yet Atelier FCJZ also clearly acknowledges its inspiration from Le Corbusier. "Maison de la Chine" documents the building and its design process in rich detail through sketches, drawings, plans, and photographs. Architectural historian and curator Martino Stierli places the Maison de la Chine in the context of the evolution of contemporary Chinese architecture.
