Scott Hardy: La charte d'Athènes

La charte d'Athènes by Scott Hardy Scott Hardy is one of those enigmatic photographers that avoid media attention. The difficulties in finding out anything about him aren't really a big problem because his work speaks for itself. The photographer creates conceptual pictures, focused around the city fabric. In the project La charte d'Athènes, he studies the concept of a human being in the grand „machines of living”, an architecture current created by the architects following Le Corbusier's idea of urban planning. However, Scott pays attention to those areas where modernist architecture failed and where people struggled to feel at home among the huge blocks. Words: Thisispaper Photography: Scott Hardy
