Xavier Veilhan is photographed with "Mobile (Neutra), 2012, one of the artworks of his installation, "Architectones," currently on display at the Neutra VDL Research House in the Silverlake area of Los Angeles on August 10, 2012. Veilhan has created this body of work specifically for the modernist house RIchard Neutra designed for his family and architectural practice. Consisting of monochrome interventions, the exhibition features sculptures throughout the property, from the front garden through the ground floor and domestic quarters to the rooftop reflecting pool. Statues, models, and other objects dialogue with the modernist structure: its glass facades, rooftops, water basins and fountains. Both abstract and figurative, the artworks loosely trace the decades of the last century by focusing on the personal and professional history of architect Richard Neutra, his times, and Veilhan and his family's interaction with the house. "Architectones" will be up at the Neutra House from August 9 – September 16. (Photo by Gary Friedman/Los Angeles Times via Getty Images)
