Brazil's Alternative Path to Modernism
2024 || Hardcover || Renato Anelli || Hatje Cantz
The Italio-Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi (1914-1992) forged a unique path with her bold designs.

In the Temple of the Self. The Artist's Residence as a Total Work of Art
Europe and America 1800-1948
2024 || Hardcover || Margot Th. Brandlhuber || Hatje Cantz
