…is now showing at The Barbican in London. I saw this exhibition last year in Liverpool in the Crypt of the Catholic Cathedral and it was top notch.
A fine cultural immersion for a few hours
The exhibition focuses on Le Corbusier’s unique multi-disciplinary approach, and brings together a wealth of his paintings, films, sculpture and books alongside vintage photographs, original architectural models and interior settings. It also features important works by his collaborators and artistic contemporaries such as furniture designers Charlotte Perriand and Jean Prouvé, and artists Fernand Léger and Amédée Ozenfant.
Roughly decoded that means you get to see the work one of the finest designers of our time who turned his hand to houses, furniture, films and more.
On and they have an exhibition blog too

Steve, I'm a big fan of the Bauhaus movement. Le Corbusier and the movement were not without fault, but we software types have a lot to learn from Bauhaus. I rambled on about this a while ago. http://theotherthomasotter.wordpress.com/2007/09/10/a-design-classic-1927-and-software/ If I'm in London while it is on, this exhibition will be on my list.
