Fernand Pouillon
A screening of the award-winning documentary about Fernand Pouillon's spectacularly dramatic life, followed by a conversation with the director, Jean-Marie Montangerand.
The work of Fernand Pouillon, dubbed the 'most wanted architect in France' after being imprisoned and mysteriously escaping in the 1960s, is not widely known today. However, in 50 years he built more than 5 million square meters of housing, principally in France and French colonial Algeria, employing load-bearing stone construction.
The film is 52 minutes long, in French, with English subtitles.
The Architecture Foundation, in association with the Barbican, presents Architecture on Stage – a programme of talks by the world's leading architects.
