Descrição: Brazil's architectural success story conceals its Baroque roots, deeply tangled in colonialism. Costa attempted to 'deflect the criticism that Modernism was foreign', writes Fernando Luiz Lara, seeking to decolonize the narrative of Brazilian architecture, but 'modern/colonial stitching goes much further, and uglier, than that'. Repeatedly referred to as 'paradise on Earth' and the 'country of the future' (of the eternal future for the cynics), Brazil can appear smothered by the myths and fantasies projected onto faraway tropical lands. For Lina Bo Bardi, Brazilian architecture requires 'a continual mixing of technological know-how with the spontaneity and passion of primitive art'. As dark clouds gather on the horizon, the last 75 years of Brazil's architectural legacy provide a solid foundation on which to build a resilient future.
