Archive - Le Corbusier Works Listed as World Heritage Sites 

Magnum Photographers 

UNESCO, the United Nations' cultural organisation has listed 17 works by pioneering Franco-Swiss architect Le Corbusier as world heritage sites. Le Corbusier spearheaded the modern movement after World War One, using iron, concrete and glass in a new focus on bold lines and functionality that did not appeal to everyone. The sites are in seven countries, including La Cite Radieuse in Marseille, Maison Guiette in Antwerp and the Capital Complex Indian city of Chandigarh. Magnum photographers have extensively photographed the architect at work and the structures he designed.
