The French Communist Party headquarters in Paris designed by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.
"The architect had abandoned his country but not his lifelong political principles: In a show of solidarity, Niemeyer worked on the project for free. But his Marxist-Leninist sympathies were not limitless. "On the politics, I'm with you, but your architecture is awful."
"I am attracted to free-flowing, sensual curves," he wrote in his memoirs. "The curves that I find in the mountains of my country, in the sinuousness of its rivers, in the waves of the ocean, and on the body of the beloved woman."
He also planned the entire capital city of Brasilia
As a car-centric, pedestrian-hostile, anti poor mess.
tbf it had to fit in with the aesthetics of this cursed fucking continent
Damn he really is a land of contrasts
