Revisiting the Modern Architecture Canon: Parallels and Distinctions in Brazil and Czech Republic through Feminist Perspectives
Original language description
This article engages in the debate about the Modern Architecture canon, focusing on the need to destabilize gender-biased narratives that marginalize women's contributions. It examines the systemic exclusion of women architects in Brazil and the Czech Republic, drawing from two key research projects linked to two of the authors: Merli’s Brazilian doctoral research and the "Women in Architecture" project conducted by a team of Czech researchers: Brůhová (project co-leader), Hlaváčková, Huber-Doudová (project co-leader), Malošíková and Zahrádková. The study highlights how these works challenge the androcentric canon through biographical, decolonial and gender analysis, interviews, and both archival and secondary research. The Brazilian research identifies significant female architects from 1930 to 1960, emphasizing their overlooked contributions. The Czech project explores gender disparities and societal biases affecting women architects' visibility. These studies propose methodologies for integrating women's contributions into the mainstream architectural narrative. The findings suggest the necessity of reshaping the narrative to include collaborative and processual aspects of architectural work.
