An extensive collection of Le Corbusier's paintings, drawings, and prints will be exhibited in the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts from June 1 to August 15. The exhibition, showing Le Corbusier as a painter and graphic artist, will include ten paintings, 12 watercolors and drawings, 55 prints, one tapestry, and a selection of books.

Authorized by Le Corbusier and assembled exclusively from U. S. collections, the exhibition is presented in conjunction with a selection of photographic panels designed by the architect and executed at the Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos, Barcelona, Spain.

The scope of the exhibition is defined by an early "Still Life," signed "Jeanneret" and dated 1920, eight year before the pseudonym of Le Corbusier appeared. Reflecting the Cubists' carefully controlled forms, precise edge and muted palette, this and other early works contrast markedly with the line ear, brilliantly colored Taureaux paintings of the 1950's. The most recent work displayed is an Aubusson tapestry "La licorne passe sur la men completed in 1962.
