Abertura: Lina Bo Bardi And The 1980’S
The exhibition "Abertura: Lina Bo Bardi and the 1980’s" at Martins & Montero, Brussels, examines Lina Bo Bardi's work beyond its formal aspects, focusing on space as a tool for organizing bodies, coexistence, and time. It presents furniture not as historical objects but as integrated elements within the exhibition space, functioning as structures that mediate human interaction, movement, and presence. The show highlights the social function of these pieces, drawing parallels with Bo Bardi's SESC Pompeia project, developed during Brazil's political "abertura" (opening).
This project is viewed as a system where architecture and furniture collaborate to structure collective life. The exhibition aims to activate the underlying logic of these works rather than presenting them as icons. The inclusion of other artists expands this discourse, featuring practices that engage with the body, spatial construction, and social inscription.
