»The artist’s freedom has always been ›individual‹, but true freedom can only be collective. A freedom aware of social responsibilities, which can knock down the frontiers of aesthetics« Lina Bo Bardi

Hall of Femmes, together with The Swedish Centre for Architecture and Design, is organizing »True freedom can only be collective – a seminar celebrating Lina Bo Bardi.« The seminar is held in connection with the exhibition Lina Bo Bardi: Together.

Lina Bo Bardi was born in Rome in 1914 but moved to Sao Paolo in 1946. As well as an architect, she was an active designer, scenographer, editor, furniture designer, and curator. Lina Bo Bardi was pioneering in how she questioned the culture of genius surrounding individual architects; she herself emphasized the importance of collaboration.
