The National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design is hosting an exhibition “Case de Vidro: Lina Bo Bardi in Dialogue with Sverre Fehn” through May 14, 2017. The exhibition presents Lina Bo Bardi’s glasshouse in São Paulo, Casa de Vidro (1950-52) inside Sverre Fehn’s glass pavilion (1997-2008). The juxtaposition serves as starting point for a dialogue between two architects who never met and yet have similarities; for example the sculptural use of reinforced concrete, their long-standing commitment to rehabilitation projects and adaptive re-use and their interest in exhibition design. There is also a dialogue between the architectural idioms of Bo Bardi and Fehn and the visual language of artist Veronica Kellndorfer, whose new installation reflects Bo Bardi’s Casa de Vidro. Specially created for Fehn’s glass pavilion, the installation includes sculptural re-enactment of Casa de Vidro’s suspended patio on the scale 1:2. Bo Bardi’s iconic glass easels developed for the presentation of paintings in the Museu de Arte de São Paulo, with the modular wall elements that Fehn designed for the National Museum - Architecture.  The exhibition is on view at Universitetsgata 13, 0164 Oslo, NorwayFor details, visit: www.nasjonalmuseet.noClick on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the exhibition. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 17.0px Times} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 17.0px Times; min-height: 20.0px} span.s1 {font-kerning: none}
