Description
Lina Bo Bardi: A Comprehensive Study of the Brazilian Modernist Architect's Life and Work This book presents the first major retrospective of Lina Bo Bardi's life and work, one of the most important architects of the twentieth century. Born in 1914, Bo Bardi was a prolific architect who evolved her practice within the social and cultural realities of Brazil, where she immigrated in 1946. Bo Bardi's designs were marked by a unique blend of industrial materials and naturalistic forms, with a focus on creating large, multiuse spaces that promoted public life. This comprehensive study examines how ethical and social considerations influenced her intellectual engagement with modern architecture, providing an indispensable guide to her writings and iconic designs. Author Zeuler Lima presents a detailed account of Bo Bardi's activities on two continents, shedding new light on the architect's intriguing and idiosyncratic approach to modernist design.
