Isaac Julien's Lina Bo Bardi—A Marvellous Entanglemen book is now published

Isaac Julien’s latest book on his multiscreen installation Lina Bo Bardi—A Marvellous Entanglement is now published and can be ordered through Yale University Press. 

Lina Bo Bardi—A Marvellous Entanglement is a poetic portrait exploring the life, work, and legacy of the Italian-born Brazilian architect Lina Bo Bardi (1914–1992). The installation enfolds viewers in a narrative that exemplifies Bo Bardi’s observation that “time is not linear, it is a marvellous entanglement.” In this book, Julien combines elements of his recent film installation, works from his related photographic series, and a rich selection of archival materials, offering a deeper understanding of Bo Bardi and her influence. The publication features an essay by theorist Giuliana Bruno, a behind-the-scenes account of the project by curator and scholar Mark Nash, and a conversation between Julien and members of Brazilian art collective Araká, who performed in A Marvellous Entanglement. The book was designed by Katy Nelson.
