Shays long 》 1941 /1985 age remake made of Charlotte Perriand 《 bamboo, Cassina
Trace of a one Frenchwoman architect, the designer who I loved Japanese culture, and made the new tide of the design
“The bar of the garret” which I exhibited at salon ドートンヌ of 1927 was recognized, and Charlotte Perriand (1903 through 99) entered the atelier of Le-Corbusier. Therefore, with Le-Corbusier, Pierre ジャンヌレ, I announced iron, aluminum, “the interior facilities of the house” using the new material such as the glass and proposed the way of the house of the new age.
ペリアン which visited Japan as “advisor of the commercial and industrial ministry industrial arts instruction” for the first time was left improvement, the instruction of the industrial art object for foreign countries to once in an atelier of Le-Corbusier by recommendation of Junzo Sakakura who was a co-worker and, in 1940, went around the all over Japan with Munemichi Yanagi and, for the researchers who were young in the industrial arts instruction place of Sendai, taught handling or a design of the material.
During a stay in Japan, Muneyoshi Yanagi who was an impeller of the “people art” exercise and ペリアン which interchanged with the 河井寬次郎 and others sympathized with an idea of “the people art” and tried it to regenerate traditional design and technique to stay in the district for a sense at the same period. Product made in 《 bamboo Shays long shot 》 which I announced by “one suggestion (popular name “選擇傳統創造” 展) to the ペリアン Ms. Japan brainchild exhibition 2,601 years house inside equipment” of 1941 is one. In addition, it is unbroken, and the rational and modern design which assumed bamboo and the tree which she suggested material continues while it is updated without product すこととなり still enduring the flow that is clear in the domain of the postwar design with a strong suggestive thing for design world of then Japan.
ペリアン which visited Japan again in 1953 holds “suggestion – Le-Corbusier to synthesis of the art, Leger, ペリアン three exhibition” (1955) in Tokyo. Chair 《 omber (“I bring about the many masterpieces which kept a prewar Japanese experience alive in a design, and the 《 vibrio technical center ニュアージュ (bookshelf which made staggered shelves a hint including shadow )》 gets a high evaluation including cloud “)》.”) which I came up with the idea of from Japanese puppet theater
By the book exhibition consisting of five chapters, I introduce with photograph which ペリアン photographed, approximately 500 points including the letter which I exchanged with a Japanese friend other than furniture, a drawing about the interior, a photograph document. It will be with the opportunity when the book exhibition following resonance of sensitivity born between ペリアン and a Japanese and the influence thinks about the way of a building and the design in the 21st century.
