English/French text.00A large-format photography monograph dedicated to the new building for MUDAC Photo Elysée in Lausanne, designed by Portuguese architects Aires Mateus. Situated on a former railway site, the building, with its monolithic character interrupted by a seemingly hovering upper volume, merges three museums and their collections under one roof for the first time. As Bernard Zurbuchen writes in the accompanying text, "It is perhaps this lucid and meticulous control between rational spaces and spatial emotions that produces the complexity and richness of this work. We enter and, thanks to the complex and rich spatiality, we find ourselves ready to observe".
