Une architecture néo-andine Un écrit de Elisabetta Andreoli sur Freddy Mamani

Elisabetta Andreoli is an art and modern architecture historian living between Great Britain, Italy, and Latin America. She is particularly interested in Latin American architecture. In 2014, at the Royal Institute of British Architects, she organized the first exhibition dedicated to Italo-Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi, widely considered a major figure of the modern movement. In co-direction with Adrian Forty, an architecture historian and professor at the Bartlett School of Architecture at UCL (London), Andreoli published Brazil’s Modern Architecture (London: Phaidon Press, 2004). She is also the author of Bolivia contemporánea (La Paz: Plural Editores, 2012). With Ligia D’Andrea, she published La Arquitectura de Freddy Mamani Silvestre (La Paz: Independent edition, 2014), which was decisive in the international recognition of Freddy Mamani and his colorful constructions, representative of a new type of Andean architecture.
