SUMMARY:Forum Lecture: Adapting — Design in a Fully Built Metropolis
DESCRIPTION:The lecture will focus on the recent work of the architectural firm RADDAR in São Paolo, Brazil, including renovating the emblematic Oscar Niemeyer COPAN Building, the largest residential building in Latin America. Their work also includes the conservation and management of Lina Bo Bardi’s Glass House, an icon of modern Brazilian architecture, and the complex adaptation of the Pacaembu, Brazil’s first soccer stadium.



Sol Camacho will discuss the ramifications that these projects have had as agents of activation of culture in the city of São Paulo.



Sol Camacho is an architect, researcher, curator, and director of RADDAR, a design office in São Paulo. She is the former cultural director of Instituto Bardi / Casa de Vidro, where she designed the Summer Pavilion and coordinated the conservation and management plan for Lina Bo Bardi’s Glass House.



She has curated exhibitions on architecture internationally, including the Brazilian Pavilion for the 16th International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.



Among other professional recognitions, Camacho was selected as a candidate for the Rolex Mentor and Protégé Arts Initiative (2016) and twice earned the FONCA research scholarship (2012, 2014). She is a graduate of Harvard University and has taught at Princeton University.
