Description:
Collaged series of photographs of various angles of Le Corbusier’s Notre-Dame-du-Haut.”The Bauhaus in Dessau, the Chapel of Notre-Dame-du-Haut by Le Corbusier in Rochamp and one of the classic buildings in the London district of Belgravia—these are the places [Florschuetz] has captured with his camera. And Florschuetz does this in a way that takes his photography beyond the mere documentary reproduction of what he has seen.”He chronicles the respective situation or building by carefully framing excerpts and exemplary details, extracting ciphers from the architecture with his images which he then uses as the starting material for his works.”
