About this product

Product Information

A fascinating look at modernist urban planning and spatial theories in Brazilian 20th-century art and architecture Exploring the intersections among art, architecture, and urbanism in Brazil from the 1920s through the 1960s, Adrian Anagnost shows how modernity was manifested in locally specific spatial forms linked to Brazil's colonial and imperial past. Discussing the ways artists and architects understood urban planning as a tool to reorganize the world, control human action, and remedy social problems, Anagnost offers a nuanced account of the seeming conflict between modernist aesthetics and a predominately poor and historically disenfranchised urban public, with particular attention to regionalist forms of urban development. Organized as a series of case studies of projects such as Fl vio de Carvalho's performative urbanism, the construction of the Ministry of Education and Public Health building, Lina Bo and Pietro Maria Bardi's efforts to modernize Brazilian museums, and H lio Oiticica's interstitial works, this study is full of groundbreaking insights into the ways that modernist theories of urbanism shaped the art and architecture of 20th-century Brazil.

Reviews
"Not only very original but also a very necessary, long overdue, and refreshing corrective of ingrained and perceived ideas about Brazilian modernism."--Anna Indych-López, The Graduate Center & City College (CUNY) " Spatial Orders, Social Forms is a much-needed account and reconsideration of the many important works, ideas, and social intentions of twentieth century Brazilian art, architecture, and space."--Luis E. Carranza, author of Modern Architecture in Latin America: Art, Technology, and Utopia, "Anagnost has done a superb job of reuniting the discussions of art and architecture, reminding us of the intense exchanges between people working on different media and at different scales."--Fernando Luiz Lara, Art Journal, "Anagnost has done a superb job of reuniting the discussions of art and architecture, reminding us of the intense exchanges between people working on different media and at different scales."--Fernando Luiz Lara, Art Journal " Spatial Orders, Social Forms is a much-needed account and reconsideration of the many important works, ideas, and social intentions of twentieth century Brazilian art, architecture, and space."--Luis E.

Spatial Orders, Social Forms ultimately offers insightful reevaluations of some of the most canonical moments of Brazilian art history alongside lesser-known public works."--Aleca Le Blanc, Art Bulletin " Spatial Orders, Social Forms is a much-needed account and reconsideration of the many important works, ideas, and social intentions of twentieth century Brazilian art, architecture, and space."--Luis E. Carranza, author of Modern Architecture in Latin America: Art, Technology, and Utopia "Not only very original but also a very necessary, long overdue, and refreshing corrective of ingrained and perceived ideas about Brazilian modernism."--Anna Indych-López, The Graduate Center & City College (CUNY)

The book is a new copy (as I ordered). Arrived within the frame time. There was no way to track the shipping (which was annoying but I didn't try to contact the seller). The book was packaged in a secure envelope which protected it.
