Abstract

Purism refers to an early twentieth century French movement in art and architecture. It was founded by the French artist and theorist Amédée Ozenfant and the Swiss architect Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret). Purism stemmed from cubism but it was created as a reaction to it. The movement emerged in 1918, after the end of the World War I, and lasted until 1925 with the presentation of the Esprit Nouveau Pavilion at the International Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts organized in Paris the same year. Although French cubist artist Fernand Léger was associated with the movement, Ozenfant and Le Corbusier remained its principal exponents. The Purists left behind a corpus of theoretical writings that explain the positions and the role of the movement. One of the basic principles of purism is its disdain for decorative art, advocating the simplification of forms and the lack of ornamental details. It also constitutes a reaction to art nouveau and its purely decorative style.
