"A chronological catalog of the work of architect Lina Bo Bardi. The text, written by Bo Bardi in her unique style, describes her projects and reveals her personal philosophy and thoughts on various subjects including Brazil. Born and raised in Italy, she adopted Brazil as her home, restoring many buildings of historical interest and influencing a generation of architects, playwrights, moviemakers, and designers. Her life, projects, watercolors, photographs, and designs are richly documented here. Most of the catalog's illustrations were drawn from her archives"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
