NILUFAR | Lina Bo Bardi Giancarlo Palanti – Studio d’Arte Palma 1948 - 1951

The first exhibition on the work of the two italo-brazilian designers, investigating their original projects. Produced in collaboration with the Instituto Bardi / Casa De Vidro, the show is the result of extensive research conducted by Nina Yashar on Lina Bo Bardi and her work as a designer. Focusing on the work realized within Estùdio de Arte Palma, the exhibition at Nilufar Gallery presents the largest collection of Lina’s furniture ever brought together. Many of the pieces displayed, mostly chairs and armchairs, are rare objects originating in Brazil. The unique combination of aesthetic and function in her furniture, each piece built for a specific purpose, is a powerful expression of Lina Bo Bardi’s generous and all-encompassing philosophy of design.
