Lina Bo Bardi, an architect born in Rome in 1914, graduated from the Architecture Faculty of Rome University in 1940. Soon after this she moved to Milan, where she worked for Gio Ponti and edited the magazine Domus. The war over, she emigrated to Brazil in 1946 with her husband Pietro Maria Bardi, an art historian and critic. It was in Brazil, a country whose nationality she would later assume, that she developed her professional career in the field of architecture and industrial and interior design. The radical, modern focus of her work is impregnated with a wish to reconcile popular culture and everyday life, to do away with the distance between high and low culture. Her built architectural work possesses the conceptual and material forthrightness for which it is generally known, although she undertook a great many unbuilt projects. Only her built works are presented in this number of 2G. Foremost among these are probably the famous House of Glass (the Bardis' own home), the MASP (São Paulo Art Museum) and the SESC Pompéia Factory, all of them in São Paulo.

"The architect, Lina Bo Bardi (1914-1992), has long been considered one of the major modern architects of the twentieth century in Brazil. The Glass House (1951), a residence for herself and her husband, gained wide acclaim, appearing in architectural periodicals throughout 1953-54. Her iconic Museum of Art of São Paulo (1968), and the bold, Social Service for Commerce Building-Pompéia, São Paulo (1986), have gained recognition in recent years and her reputation is beginning to be acknowledged internationally. Bo Bardi's major writings on architecture, however, have not been translated, and are not well known. This book contains the first English-language translation of Propeadeutic Contribution to the Teaching of Architecture Theory, (Habitat, Ltd. São Paulo, 1957), a seminal text, published in Portuguese by the Italo-Brazilian Bo Bardi. It is arguably the first published writing on architecture theory by a practicing woman architect. Accompanying the translation is an introductory essay that interprets Bo Bardi's text as a critical and constructive theory of architecture built from a collection of textual and visual artifacts. This translation clearly renders Bo Bardi's work in English, and contextualizes it theoretically, taking into account the specific historical sources and contemporaneous discourses from which it draws. With comparisons to other important architectural pedagogies and theoretical texts of the period, it is also an inquiry into the nature of architecture history and theory, its role in education and its relation to practice"--

Built in the early 1950s in São Paulo, Lina Bo Bardi's Casa de Vidro (Glass House) was the first real architectural project she completed after her arrival in Brazil. Built as a home for herself and her husband, it clearly demonstrates how architecture and design should keep a distance from individuals, society or community, and the natural environment - a stance that would come to underlie all of the Italian-born architect's subsequent works. Photographed by master architectural photographer Yukio Futagawa, Casa de Vidro still appears as its designer intended, a prototype that responded to a new society, rising directly from the earth and embedded in the surrounding jungle.
