Mr.Uzan's professor at the world famous ENSBA, Ecole National Superieur des Beaux Arts de Paris, in the Bauhaus tradition, was Marcel Breuer, recognized as the world's greatest achietect of his time ... here seen with Breuer's assistant and museum curator reviewing Mr. Uzan's first sculptre for exhibition for the cesaar award of internationally ewknowned

Cannes Film Festival

Mr. Uzan wanted to be an architect since the age of 12 so one day his family Jewish bankers, affiliated with Rothscholds sent him with a letter of introductrion to ENSBA, Ecole National Superieur des Beaux Arts de Paris professeur bernard Zerfusss gave him a chance to test him in his own architectural office for 30 days.

He advised Mr. Uzan to perfect his education in architecture at the world reknowned, though radically biased Post War ENSBA.

A competition is required to get into this french government sponsored, "Cultural Affair" free university.

Is there any University entrance test harder in the world?

No. Even professional American well Known architects have been known to fail the competition to get into this university.

After 30 days Mr. Zerfuss Wrote a letter of introduction to the French government concerning the issue that Mr. Uzan should have his credentials considered for the Concours, Competition.

Then Mr. Uzan excitedly but nervously prepared for the exam. He studied thoroughly under the tutorship of Sephardic Jew french architect Oliver Clement Cacoub winner of the pretigous Grand Prix de Rome award and also a ENSBA graduate.

He passed the test and was over joyed he would be admitted to the world's most prestigous School of Architecture

Mr Uzan studying and working from the age of 17 to 22 in an American base in europe concerning the architecture of for the reconstruction of europe thus 5 years preofessional training and thus he found two years at the ENSBA, and offered him a professional assitant position concerning international architectural students since Mr. Uzan wrote and spoke 5 languages fluently

Mr. Uzan's residence at the time was Rue de Sedre, the same as the atelier, loft, office and studio of the

world famous

genius, architect,designer,visionary and artist Le Corbusier

Thank you for your collaboration on the Cite International de La Jeunesse, in France, City of Youth

Le Corbusier

Mr. Uzan and Le Corbusier met while fighting over a taxi in the rain outside thier building, Mr. Uzan

being polite allowed

the elderly Le Corbusier to win the taxi. However as a gentleman he invited the young 22 year old student

Uzan

with T-square and drawing board in hand to enter the taxi. By chance it was the same direction.

It is therein that Mr. Uzan found out who his illustrious neighbor was, none other than the enigmatic, controversial,

"Le Fada", means "The Crazy", romantic archtiect

Le Corbusier

Bonjour, Bonjour, Quel direction vous aller?

Hello, Hello, what direction do you go?

Bois de Boulogne

Like the Paris Central Park

They then found out that Mr. Uzan's resisdence was the same as Le Corbusier's office thay had a 40 year difference, and both were architects. In the taxi they struck up an instant friendship which proceeded the famous Le Corbusier

inviting

the young Uzan tohis home for his selection of a hundred cheeses, bread and wine.

This brief meeting lead to Mr. uzan visiting frequently the studio downstairs on the second floor of master

Le Corbusier and eventually

the Young Uzan with his important international familial banking, real estate, political and professional

connections:

Uzan International:

...a thousand year history of international import/export, trading, mining, dates, olive oil, winery fiances

etc...

struck up a working relationship with master Le Corbusier to promote his work

Le Corbusier is the archetypalwas a self made man

a walling enigma

Self made architect, industrial designer, engineer, artist, designer, mathematician

No diploma

At first he was never acceptedby society, but in p ost war france he was given an opportunity in

Marseille France to build a large project for income people.

Unite d'Habition

because the minister of Construction, Claudius Petit saw that he had talent and they developed a good relationship

this project became world famous concerning architecture proportion

He created a new dimension in architecture synthesis between human body and architecture

he also created the

Le Modulor

which is now the Bible of Architecture

For instance all today's leading archit4ects have studied and or followed the precepts and principles of Le

Corbusier's Le Modular design

It is through Le Corbusier, a swiss french architect, who was consultant for the UN in the US and UNESCO in Paris

and through the letters of recomendation of MR. Zerfuss and Cacoub that Mr. Uzan met Marcel Breuer as he was visiting the French UNESCO site office

Mr. Uzan was hired on the spot by Mr. Breuer to be a draftsman of Architectural details and conception

for the UNESCO project

starting out with the design of the conrete sprial fire staircase in addition to the interior of the

International Conference

room for UNESCO....acoustical, lighting and furniture design, the design of the

including the Japanese garden by Isamu Noguchi, a sculpture and artist of world reknown

and

The Two

Walls of Miro

known as

Sun and Moon

Soleil et Lune

It is here that Mr. Uzan worked with Miro, the spanish painter of world reknown, who paintings are to be seen in

all the world's most damous musem's and private collections

"Can you enlarge the wall, Miro?"

"No, Uzan"

"Why not, Miro?"

"Because this is Mr. Breuer's study, design, dimension and it can not be changed; including any change in blueprints, I will lose my position, Uzan"

"Okay, let's have some wine and paella and bring your assistant"

He worked all ni ght long under the direction of Miro building the wall of Miro

This is where Mr. Uzan leared ceramics and contracting for instance.

The heat of the kiln changes the color of the ceramics and through the master Miro we were instructed as how to obtain the correct colots

Later through Miro and Marcel Breuer, Mr. Uzan was introduced to the likes of Pableo Picasso, Kandinsky and Piet Modrian,

Alexander Calder of the Mobile, and the 62 famous painters and artists that worked onthe UNESCO project

This is where Mr. Uzan acquired his sensitive eye, and artistic judgement to become an International jury

member for awards in a

wide range fo fields such as coloring, graphics, design, quality for his later work as a curator, painter

sculpture

photographer and fashion designer, beauty pagents, trades

Marcel Breuer later invited Mr. Uzan to work in his office in the US working on Various Museums in NY.
Mr. Miroinvited hos worker and Mr. Uzan to create all the ceramics of his wall. This involved the meticulous paintingand firing in the onsite kiln of all the tiles.

It is at this time that Miro introduced Mr. Uzan to Pablo Picasso and
