dc.descriptionGeneral view depicting Montsouris and Reille façades; In late December 1917 or early 1918 a key event changed Le Corbusier's whole direction. He met the painter, critic and fashion expert Amédée Ozenfant, and within nine months they had put on an exhibition of paintings at the Galerie Thomas and published a booklet, Après le Cubisme, establishing the art movement Purism. Just over a year later, with the poet Paul Dermée, they founded the magazine L'Esprit nouveau (1920-1925), and during this period Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, Arts and Crafts designer, became Le Corbusier, pioneer of the Modern Movement. Ozenfant's openness to new ideas allowed Le Corbusier to take liberties with practical arrangements, and the results offer some dramatic images, such as Ozenfant's pristine glazed cube of a studio.
