Read StoryThe Movement of
Modern Brazilian Design
A week of Modern Art in 1922 birthed the Brazilian Modernism movement which was further propelled by Le Corbusier’s whirlwind travels through South America in the 1920s. French was the most widely spoken foreign language and architects flooded to the movement. The end of WWII propelled a further influx of Europeans to Brazil, precipitating a cultural exchange which continues today.
