Abstract
ANDRADE, Julia Cavalcante de. Collections of Modern Brazilian Architecture (1945-1960): funds and collections in public bodies and institutions in Brazil. An. Investig. Arquit. [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.2, e310. Epub Dec 01, 2022. ISSN 2301-1505. https://doi.org/10.18861/ania.2022.12.2.3296.
This article is related to the need to know the collections of Brazilian Modern Architecture - in funds and public collections - existing in bodies and institutions in Brazil. The temporal cut considers collections made up of goods relating to the 1945 to 1960 decades and a spatial cut aimed at a systematization of these collections and their distribution in the Brazilian territory. The selection criteria of bodies and institutions were based on their location in states that had greater evidence and prominence in the process of modernization in Brazil in the aforementioned time frame, therefore: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Minas Gerais and Brasília. The objective is to present a mapping of public bodies and institutions in Brazil and their respective funds and collections in which it is possible to find research material on Brazilian Modern Architecture; a widely studied topic that, however, does not have the collections linked to it yet properly mapped. And through the survey of such collections, visualize the future possibility of deepening and expanding them, building a reference base with other collections related to the theme.
Keywords : Architecture Collections; Brazilian Modern Architecture; Architectural Heritage; Public collections.
