• "This Summer I travelled all the way to Marseille to visit the @marseillemodulor by @ora_ito, situated on top of the world's famous Cité Radieuse, built between 1945 and 1952 by Le Corbusier.
Not onlv I was able to spend some time in this legendary architectural place, but I was lucky enough to clock in the exhibition of one of my favorite artists ever: @danielarsham
"On the outdoor terrace are three bronze sculptures: two
Classical female figures are derived from Greek and Roman antiquities while a Delorean conjures associations with the slightly more recent past of the 1980s.
Treated in the same green patina with crystalized erosions the content of these works evokes different eras but the sculptures seem to have aged at the same rate thus rendering them as equally ancient and creating a further confusion of time and history."
And also, as the press release states: "Arsham pays homage to Le Corbusier in both style and design, blending themes of sport and history and returning the space to its original function as a gymnasium. Iconic imagery from the building is reimagined by Arsham within the playful context of a basketball court."
Daniel Arsham's Le Modulor du Basketball is on view until September 25th, so don't miss the chance to stop by if you're around Marseille, you'd definitely won't regret it!" • www.carandvintage.com
