About the Item

Stéphane COUTURIER (*1957, France) E1027+ 123 – Villa Eileen Gray – Photo #2, 2021-2022 C-Print Sheet 80 x 96 cm (31 1/2 x 37 3/4 in.) Edition of 5 Framed print Born in 1957 in Neuilly sur Seine, Stéphane Couturier currently lives and works in Paris. In 1994, Stéphane Couturier showed his first works in a series called 'Urban Archaeology', viewing the city as a living organism with multiple aspects. He photographed it deliberately avoiding anything that suggested poetry, nostalgia or strangeness. From 1999 on, Stéphane Couturier was increasingly drawn to suburbs and began to focus on a different type of landscape: on the one hand, by tackling housing blocks and high-rises in his 'Monuments' series; on the other, by photographing mushrooming housing developments.These generic cities soon became his favorite subject. – E1027+ 123 – Villa Eileen Gray For this new project, the artist finally crosses the thresholds of houses and focuses on what occurs behind shutters and parapets. He photographs the flipside of the walls: the side that harbours and no longer that which exhibits. This shift from exterior to interior is inevitably accompanied by a dive into intimacy. In terms of architecture, it would appear that domestic and psychological interiors sometimes merge. At least, this is the analogy conceptualised by Eileen Gray, the architect and former owner of the building Stéphane Couturier chose to photograph: Villa E-1027. Built in 1929 at Roquebrune Cap-Martin in the Alpes-Maritimes, this home was her ultimate architectural work. While at the time, modernists were devising the 'machine to inhabit', Eileen Gray was imagining space as an expansion of the self. For her, the home is 'the shell of man, his extension, expansion, and spiritual radiance.' – Art, Contemporary, Colour, Architecture, Photography, Geometry, Graphics, Structured, Pattern, Large Format, Building, Le Corbusier, Fresco
