Brazilian Modern Design
This enormous 484-page compendium documents the work of 15 of the leading Brazilian furniture designers in the modern period, between the 1940s and 1970s, including Lina Bo Bardi, Joaquim Tenreiro, José Zanine Caldas, Sergio Rodrigues and Jorge Zalszupin. The extensive selection of reproduction allows the reader to appreciate the details of the designers' creative thinking and the variety of aesthetic solutions. The accompanying text, by Maria Cecilia Loschiavo, examines the elements that brought about the genesis of modern Brazilian design, weaving an analysis that guides the reader to present dialogues between the arts. The book also includes a short biography of each of the designers, plus a chapter on the contributions made by architects to modern furniture design.
Joaquim Tenreiro
"Joaquim Tenreiro, a carpenter born in Portugal, lived in Brazil since the year 1928, to whom is attributed a great contribution in the creation of the Brazilian Modern Furniture. The present work has as challenge to present a reading of his work as carpenter, designer and decorator and the reconstitution of his trajectory from his first work, developed for the residence of Francisco Inácio Peixoto, designed by Oscar Niemeyer in 1942, until the termination of his activities as furniture designer in 1968. The furniture and interiors of Joaquim Tenreiro, who bequeathed to posterity a vast work laden with the marks that witness the Modern Movement of Architecture and Design in Brazil, are analyzed in order to decode the creation of a language for the Brazilian furniture, followed by great Designers who have tracked his steps." --
Brazil Modern
Twentieth-century Brazilian furniture design is perhaps the last great largely unknown tradition of modernism, characterized by rich and sensually textured hardwoods and an ingenuity, grace, and simplicity that exemplify the national character of brasiliadade. With well over 400 historic images and new photography, Brazil Modern: The Rediscovery of Twentieth-Century Brazilian Furniture surveys the history and legacy of this innovative design tradition. Featuring the work of the titans of Brazilian design—Lina Bo Bardi, Oscar Niemeyer, Joaquim Tenreiro, and Sergio Rodrigues—as well as numerous designers whose work and reputations only recently reached foreign shores, Brazil Modern is the first comprehensive guide to this untapped vein of modernist design.
