With well over 400 historic images and new photography, Brazil Brand new: The Rediscovery of Twentieth-Century Brazilian Furniture surveys the history and legacy of this cutting edge design tradition. Featuring the work of the titans of Brazilian design—Lina Bo Bardi, Oscar Niemeyer, Joaquim Tenreiro, and Sergio Rodrigues—in addition to a large number of designers whose work and reputations simplest recently reached foreign shores, Brazil Modern is the primary comprehensive guide to this untapped vein of modernist design.
