Abstract

This intervention aims to investigate the figure of Lina Bo Bardi, an Italian architect who moved to Brazil in 1946, at the end of the Second World War, who during his years of activity in Italy was also collaborating with the architect Gio Ponti. Bo Bardi sacred architecture will be discussed in detail. Among the large number of works by the architect are, in fact, two small but significant churches built in Brazil in the seventies of the last century.
What were the Lina Bo Bardi architectural references to the place of worship? How her Italian training has permeated her work and how they have been contaminated by the architecture of the new continent? A few years before, the Second Vatican Council had given new liturgical indications. We can wonder if the liturgical opening was seen in his work as part of the architectural discourse used or if it simply was took as a fact occurred.
