| By
creating an autonomous frame-structure, the restraining spatial conditions
of the traditional corridor space (doors, pilasters, and signage) become a
mere background for the newly created layer of surface for mounting the
exhibition. This design strategy allows for showing all 35 panels of 1m by
1m (which were curated by Marcelo Carvalho Ferraz and the Instituto Lina
Bo e P.M Bardi) in their full extent and for viewing the exhibition in an
apprehensive sequence (as opposed to wColumbia University, New Yorkall-mounted
panels disappearing between doors and wall fragments). Speakers at the
symposium were: Kenneth Frampton, art historian (introduction and
moderation); Marcelo Carvalho Ferraz, Instituto Lina Bo e P.M. Bardi, São
Paulo; Ruth Verde Zein, architect and critic, McKenzie University, São
Paulo; and Esther da Costa Meyer, art historian, Princeton University.
