Travel to Brasilia with photographer Vincent Fournier
We tour Brazil’s mesmerising capital through the lens of artist and photographer Vincent Fournier and his latest book,
Brasília: A Time Capsule
Brazil’s famous capital, Brasilia, a city created from scratch using copious amounts of Modernist architecture, has been photographed by many. The new city was inaugurated on the 21 April 1960 and, including works by some of the country’s biggest names in the field, has been studied, visited and loved by architecture enthusiasts and critics alike ever since. So what prompted artist and photographer Vincent Fournier to create his own series there? ‘[It was the challenge of brining] my own vision, my style, to this city that has been so photographed!’ he explains.
