interview: ABERTO4 at maison la roche traces le corbusier's impact on brazilian modernism
Briefly

The ABERTO4 exhibition at Maison La Roche, Paris, features the interplay between modernist architecture and contemporary Brazilian art. Curator Filipé Assis emphasizes how Le Corbusier's design principles and heritage have inspired twenty-five artists to create new works that respond to the building's vibrant color palette and layout. The show illustrates the significant impact of Le Corbusier on Brazilian architecture, evident in major movements and structures since his collaborations with Costa and Niemeyer. The exhibition runs from May 14th to June 8th, 2025, exploring architecture's role in shaping cultural expression.
At the heart of the exhibition is the lasting imprint of Le Corbusier on Brazilian architecture and design. La Roche becomes a lens through which these connections sharpen.
The team made full use of Le Corbusier's original hanging system to respect the building's heritage status, highlighting how architecture serves as a launchpad for creative expression.
In this unique exhibition setting, forty newly commissioned works by twenty-five Brazilian artists unfold in dialogue with both structure and history.
