The Architectural Work of Le Corbusier, an Outstanding Contribution to the Modern Movement
Chosen from the work of Le Corbusier, the 17 sites comprising this transnational serial property are spread over seven countries and are a testimonial to the invention of a new architectural language that made a break with the past. They were built over a period of a half-century, in the course of what Le Corbusier described as “patient research”. The Complexe du Capitole in Chandigarh (India), the National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo (Japan), the House of Dr Curutchet in La Plata (Argentina) and the Unité d’habitation in Marseille (France) reflect the solutions that the Modern Movement sought to apply during the 20th century to the challenges of inventing new architectural techniques to respond to the needs of society. These masterpieces of creative genius also attest to the internationalization of architectural practice across the planet. -

ANSCO Factory
Anthony Company or E. Anthony Company was founded in 1842 by Edward Anthony as a shop that sells photography products in Broadway, New York City. The founder, Edward Anthony, was one of the first people who had education regarding daguerreotype photography techniques; however, they decided that selling photography products instead of having a photography studio would be more profitable. This was the first shop in America to retail photography products; hence Edvard Anthony, also known as the pioneer of the Photographic Business. Ansco company took its name from the 1901 merger with Scovill Manufacturing Company. In 1928 the company was sold to the Agfa, a German company whose corporation was renamed Agfa-Ansco; hence, Agfa- Ansco was created. Agfa was part of IC Farben a German Company. Eleven years after, in 1939, it was combined with another Farben subsidiary, the General Aniline and & Film Corporation (GAF). While the business was thriving the World War II, more specifically, pearl harbor changed the approach towards the German-based company. After pearl harbor, the German-born administrative officers were removed; this included Leopold Lecker . Until 1965, the alien property commission seized the company to give back to GAF later again. The company became Ansco company first, later Afga-Ansco, and in the end, GAF before it closed its activities in 1977. Eastman Kodak Company purchased the firm in 1998, but it never operated and closed entirely.
