Iconic pieces by Lina Bo Bardi and Jose Zanine Caldas dialogue with the concepts of modernity in the design of Brazilian furniture: the rationality and use of new materials by Lina (1940s) contrast with the “Denúncia” series by Zanine Caldas (1970s) and the use of large pieces of solid wood from forest wastes.
