In 1997, the French Minister of Culture appointed Jean-Louis Cohen (1949–2023) to create the Cité de l’architecture—a museum, research, and exhibition center in Paris’s Palais de Chaillot. Cohen’s research focused principally on 20th-century architecture and urban planning, and his studies on German and Soviet architectural cultures. He was professor in the history of architecture, author and curator of numerous books and exhibitions on architecture, and an internationally acknowledged authority on Le Corbusier’s work. Peter Gössel runs an agency for museum and exhibition design. He has published TASCHEN monographs on Julius Shulman, R. M. Schindler, John Lautner, and Richard Neutra, as well as several titles in the Basic Architecture series.
