Marcela Grassi

Since 2012 Xavier Veilhan has developed the project Architectones, a number of exhibitions in some of the most iconic buildings of modern architecture in the last century.

After three projects in Los Angeles (VDL House by Richard Neutra, CSH #21 by Pierre Koenig and Sheats-Goldstein Residence by John Lautner), two exhibitions in France (Unité d’habitation – MAMO by Le Corbusier and the Church Sainte Bernadette du Banlay by Claude Parent and Paul Virilio) and a performance in Moscow (Melnikov House by Konstantin Melnikov), the French artist has selected the German pavilion designed by Mies van der Rohe in 1929 and located in Barcelona for the seventh and final exhibition of the series.
