"Architecture was poorly represented in the Week of '22": Interview with Guilherme Wisnik

Subscriber Access

Thought you had already seen, read, and heard everything about the Week of '22? The Betoneira Podcast, however, approached the topic through a different lens: architecture. Guest Guilherme Wisnik explained how Oswald de Andrade's *antropofagia* underpinned Lúcio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer’s relationship with Le Corbusier in the design of the Capanema Palace, Brazil’s first public modernist building.

The Week of '22 also propelled the arts, music, poetry, and theater in the 1960s—which is perhaps why its centenary is being so widely celebrated.
