Adélia Borges has given talks in virtually every Brazilian state and in Argentina, Australia, Cape Verde, Chile, Denmark, England, India, Japan, Spain, Germany, Finland, Holland, Mexico, Qatar, Sweden, Panama, Poland, Portugal, Panama, Paraguay, United States, and Uruguay. She addresses multiple facets of design, highlighting what is being done in Brazil and Latin America. She also gives short courses. Conferences and courses are prepared according to the needs and agenda of events for which she is invited.
Among the lectures and courses already given, these have been the favorites requested:
What Is Design For?
This talk addresses how design can contribute to a less polarized, more diverse and less unequal world. That is, how design can be part of the solutions, not of the problems we have been facing recently. Ms. Borges shows examples that she has been mapping in recent initiatives, especially in Brazil or in other southern hemisphere countries. A reflection on the purpose of contemporary design and an invitation to action.
Design By The Other 90%
The title refers to an expression coined in 2007 by the Cooper Hewitt Museum, in New York City, when the “Design for the Other 90%” exhibition was held. This talk covers design made for, with or by common people, not directed to the elite only, with examples from Latin American countries. Emphasis is given to collaborative projects (with) and vernacular design (by), displaying immense ingenuity across the continent.
Women Shaping Design in Brazil
The talk presents the work of 12 women designers who had significant work in Brazil between the 1920s and 1980s. The search covers the fields of textile, furniture, lamps, stained glasses, architectural accessories and urban equipment. There are several points of confluence between them, including the fact that the majority have a social recognition far below the quality of their trajectories. A summary was presented by Adélia Borges in the Crafting Modernity Networks series, organized in September 2024 by The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA-NY) in parallel to the exhibition Crafting Modernity: Design in Latin America, 1940-1980. Available at https://www.moma.org/calendar/events/9816.
Craft, Design and Social Change in Latin America
The strengthening of the Brazilian material culture and local identity is currently one of the distinctive trends of Brazilian design. And this is happening as a two-way road: designers teaching craftsmen, and craftsmen teaching designers. This reunion and interaction between designers and craftsmen has happened since the end of the 1980s and has recently further reinforcing itself to become a definite feature of Latin American design. Designers have held workshops in many regions with the prospect of preserving local heritage and old production techniques, whilst improving the technical quality of products and helping to refine the aesthetic syntax. This approach had strengthened local cultural expressions, regional cultural identities as well as a sustainable behavior – as the Latin American population, constrained by poverty, have always recycled materials, using organic materials and rational production methods. The lecture reports some of the main initiatives of this encounter, which came to emphasize a social dimension in design, since it brings an improvement in the living conditions and in the quality of life of people in general. Adélia also points out the dangers of having experiences that does not acquaint and respect local conditions and the knowledge of the artisans.
Presented in London, Montevideo (Uruguay) and several Brazilian cities.
Brazilian Design Today: Innovation and Sustainability
The lecture presents a panorama of contemporary design production in Brazil, with its leading axis on innovation and sustainable development, considered in its broad understanding: environmentally responsible, economically inclusive and socially just. Brazil gathers special conditions concerning sustainable design: the country has too many raw materials that have not been sufficiently studied or even used; there is an established practice of recycling among people; and in the last two decades a design practice linked to social changes has been strengthening around the country. Examples of products from throughout the country were drawn from the extensive research developed to support the selection of projects exhibited at the 2010 Brazilian Design Biennial.
Presented in Cranfield (United Kingdom) and several Brazilian cities.
Identity and Diversity in Brazilian Design (lecture and course)
As globalization progresses, more value is placed by international markets on products that reveal their origin. This lecture outlines an historical overview of this effort in Brazil, stressing the main initiatives in the evolution of a Brazilian design. Aloisio Magalhães, Sergio Rodrigues, Lina Bardi, Zanine Caldas, Arte Nativa Aplicada, and the Campana brothers are among those whose production was analyzed. The issue is discussed in view of its regional nuances and the dangers of stereotyped views about the meaning of being Brazilian.
Presented in Asunción, Buenos Aires and some 20 Brazilian cities.
Tradition and Innovation in Brazilian Design (lecture)
An overview of how contemporary Brazilian design has been absorbing the country’s traditions to draw from them for innovation. After a time of looking only at other countries, in recent decades there is a “discovery” of Brazilianness as a differential not only in the national market but also internationally. Creations are presented by renowned designers such as Fernando and Humberto Campana, Heloisa Crocco, Marcelo Rosenbaum, Nido Campolongo, Sergio Rodrigues and Rico Lins as well as many new talents, exponents of a design that has as basic characteristics, inventiveness and creativity.
Presented in several Brazilian cities and in Mexico City.
Design For a World of Solidarity (lecture)
An overview of recent initiatives in Latin America, especially Brazil, on actions that seek to retrieve the social meaning of design. In Latin America teaching of design was strongly guided by the pursuance of design for industrial mass production, however the region has a limited industrialization that led to a schism from the popular crafts. These recent actions provides a bridge between popular design (including craft design, vernacular typography expressions of anonymous design, etc..) and erudite design. Several of these actions show a concern with the expression of local, cultural identity through design. Such results substantiate how design can improve people’s lives. The lecture maps most of the relevant experiences of this rapprochement, calling attention to the merits as well as warning to the dangers it can bring about when poorly carried out, without regard to the craftsman.
Presented in Montevideo, Seattle, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Temuco (Chile), Melbourne and Sydney, among other cities.
A history of seating (lecture)
An overview of the design of seats (chairs, stools, armchairs) in Brazil since the early 20th Century and an invitation on the act of sitting. The chair may be the object most explored by designers around the world – and is also considered one of the most difficult to deal with competently. This piece of furniture is very important in Western culture, and of great symbolic value. By means of it one can tell the history of furniture, as well as the history of the evolution of aesthetic languages and that of the technique. The lecture pays attention to both the scholarly and popular design, with the anonymous and Indigenous seats.
Presented in several Brazilian cities and in Buenos Aires and Rosario (Argentina).
The Frontiers of Design (lecture)
If contemporaneity dilutes frontiers, design is by nature interdisciplinary. This lecture highlights these feature and brings about a transversal perspective on design in various fields, from furniture to objects, equipment, vehicles, accessories, books, packaging, lighting fixtures, vignettes and presentations for TV and movies etc.; exemplifying the dilution of current paradigms .
Presented in São Paulo and Belo Horizonte (Brazil).
Critique and curatorship on design (lecture and course)
Design exhibitions remove the objects from their usual context – the everyday life of people – to place them in museums and art galleries. What are the peculiarities of these exhibitions? How do they differ from those dedicated to visual arts? How to use them to enhance awareness of the public about the presence of design in their lives? How can designers take advantage of such displays? Why and how can the public be told about the process of developing a project? The subject is approached by Adélia Borges from her experience as curator of exhibitions in spaces such as MASP, Itau Cultural, Museu Oscar Niemeyer and Museu da Casa Brasileira in cities such as Paris, San Francisco and Tokyo.
Presented in São Paulo and Mexico City.
