UPDATE: Congrats to Susana Duarte of Portugal, winner of the "Lina Bo Bardi" giveaway! Thank you to all those who participated. Keep your eyes peeled for another fantastic giveaway, courtesy of Yale University Press, in the coming weeks.
Our friends at Yale University Press have offered to give one of our readers a newly released copy of Lina Bo Bardi by Zeuler R.M. de la Lima; with an introduction by Barry Bergdoll.
“Architecture and architectural freedom are above all a social issue that must be seen from inside a political structure, not from outside it,” – Lina Bo Bardi, 1974
This is the first comprehensive study of the Italian-Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi (1914-1992) and the first book about Bo Bardi ever published in English. Lina Bo Bardi (November 26) frames the influential designer’s activities on two continents and in five cities to consider how ethics, politics, and social inclusiveness influenced Bo Bardi’s intellectual engagement with modern architecture. This unprecedented volume provides an authoritative guide to her experimental, ephemeral, and iconic works.
To participate, all you have to do is answer the following question in the comment section below: “Which Lina Bo Bardi project do you find most inspiring and why?”
You have until Monday, December 2nd to submit your answers. The winner will be contacted the following day. Good luck!
