Abstract

Based on approximately twenty interviews conducted between March 2018 and November 2019 with architects, faculty members of architectural schools and the heads of cultural institutes in China, this study offers a brief overview of the perception and reception of Le Corbusier's architectural thinking and works in China. This study consists of two parts. The first traces the initial reception of Le Corbusier in China by identifying its key messengers. The second aims to map out the perception of Le Corbusier in the practice and teaching of architecture in China.
