Brazilian Modern: The Master of Style” was the first exhibition ever organised in Europe, of Brazilian Modernist design pieces.
The exhibition was dedicated to the vivid creativity, expressivity and craftsmanship of the Brazilian Modernist Masters such as Sergio Rodrigues, the icon of Brazilian furniture design, inspirer and special guest of the event.
This large exhibit included more that 80 important pieces designed by Joaquim Tenreiro, Giuseppe Scapinelli, Marin Eisler and Carlo Hauner among others.
This exhibit was a rare testimony of a historical moment in which Brazil produced extraordinary, and sometimes extravagant, pieces of furniture.
