Contemporary Art at Southampton City Art Gallery
Marseille, Cite Radieuse
(Unite d’Habitation, Le Corbusier, Marseille)
Marseille, Cite Radieuse is a representation of Le Corbusier's 'Radiant City' a housing block seen as a key inspiration for Brutalist architecture. Langlands and Bell's interest stems from the tension between the architect's vision for communal living and the dehumanising reality of many Brutalist developments: "long rows of identical units, which may seem more reminiscent of the mechanical order of the production line than indicative of a future Utopian city"
