SCREENING OF THE DOCUMENTARY
Eileen Gray and the House by the Sea
directed by Béatrice Minger and Christoph Schaub
followed by a discussion with Tim Benton, professor of art history and vice-president of the Eileen Gray - Étoile de mer - Le Corbusier association, and Renaud Barrès, doctor of architecture and director of the Conseil d'architecture, d'urbanisme et de l'environnement des Pyrénées- Atlantiques, in charge of the second restoration of villa E-1027 and the reconstruction of its specific furnishings.
This captivating documentary explores the famous Villa E-1027 in Roquebrune- Cap-Martin, a modernist masterpiece designed by Eileen Gray, a pioneer of twentieth-century design and architecture. But it also sheds light on the relationship between Gray and Le Corbusier. Through archive footage, eyewitness accounts and in-depth architectural analysis, the film examines the notions of creation, appropriation and recognition in the history of architecture. A fascinating immersion in a mythical Côte d'Azur landmark, at the crossroads of two visions of modernism.
