Resumo: As cultural artefacts, architectural exhibitions have fostered dominant political imaginaries. In the mid-20th Century, New York’s Museum of Modern Art and its Department of Architecture and Design presented modern architecture as a symbol of liberty and democracy under the egis of the United States. Modern architecture in Latin America played an important role in this worldview. Starting with the exhibition Brazil Builds, MoMA deployed a strong curatorial agenda to stage this message and used its exhibitions as cultural weapons to manage dictatorships in the region and to explain to U.S. audiences how “democracy” worked in Latin America.

Em meados da metade do século 20, o Museu de Arte Moderna de Nova York e seu Departamento de Arquitetura e Design apresentaram a arquitetura moderna como um símbolo de liberdade e democracia sob incentivo governo dos Estados Unidos. A arquitetura moderna na América Latina desempenhou um papel importante nessa visão de mundo. Começando com a exposição Brazil Builds, o MoMA (Museu de Arte Moderna de Nova York) implantou uma forte agenda curatorial sendo palco para essa mensagem, usando suas exposições como armas culturais para gerir ditaduras América Latina e para explicar ao público americano como a “democracia” funcionava nessa região.Universidade São Judas Tadeu – Programa de Pós-Graduação Stricto Sensu em Arquitetura e Urbanismo2020-12-08info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistaarqurb.com.br/arqurb/article/view/49010.37916/arq.urb.vi29.490arq.urb; No. 29 (2020): set. - dez.; 08-19arq.urb; Núm. 29 (2020): set. - dez.; 08-19arq.urb; n. 29 (2020): set. - dez.; 08-191984-5766reponame:arq.urbinstname:Universidade São Judas Tadeuinstacron:USJTporenghttps://revistaarqurb.com.br/arqurb/article/view/490/397https://revistaarqurb.com.br/arqurb/article/view/490/398Copyright (c) 2020 Patricio del Realhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessdel Real, Patricio2021-12-06T19:57:32Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/490Revistahttps://revistaarqurb.com.br/arqurbPRIhttps://revistaarqurb.com.br/arqurb/oairevista.arq.urb@saojudas.br||1984-57661984-5766opendoar:2021-12-06T19:57:32arq.urb - Universidade São Judas Tadeufalse
