| Summary: | Drawing seems to have in Bo Bardi a dual soul, which results to range incessantly between expressive conciseness and inventive fury. Not only, or not so much, architectural drawings, technical drawings that are functional to the project, to its execution or to the worksite. But neither simply conceptual drawings, study sketches, theoretical or expressive research drawings, nor merely imaginative, perceptive or travel drawings. Her drawings, whose traits are often somewhat naïve, but at times meticulously precise and constructive, show a great variety of techniques and as a whole seem to be marked by the apparent, manifest oxymoron of the «fantasy of the real», borrowed, according Bo Bardi’s words, from Majakowskij. A vision of architecture tenaciously adherent to reality, a spontaneous and impetuous creativity inseparable from the experience of the body and physicality of the real, which appears immediately contaminated, like personal expressive figure, with festive and ironic creation of happiness.
