Le Corbusier and the La Tourette Priory

A French architectural masterpiece listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the La Tourette Priory, built in 1959 near Lyon for the Dominicans, remains a unique place where spirituality, art, and modern architecture meet.

Since 2009, this living monastery has hosted annual contemporary art exhibitions featuring major artists such as Anish Kapoor, Vera Molnar, Lee Ufan, François Morellet, and Anselm Kiefer.

Fr. Marc Chauveau, an art historian by training, has a special interest in 20th-century and contemporary art. His goal is to make contemporary art accessible to everyone.

Organized by the Dominicans
