Campana brothers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Campana Brothers (Humberto Campana, b. 1953 and Fernando Campana, b. 1961) are the world's most famous Brazilian designers.[citation needed]
In 1983, the two brothers teamed up to develop furniture made by ordinary material - including waste products. The originality of their artistic work caused controversy and brought massive critical attention.[citation needed] By the early 90s, they had already gained considerable international acclaim,[citation needed] notably in Europe and in the United States. Some of their products also began to be produced and sold in Italy.
The Campana Brothers fame peaked in 1998,[citation needed] when they became the first Brazilian artists to expose their work at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
