  Modernism for the Masses

Alexandra Lange, critic, architectural historian, and co-author of Design Research: The Store That Brought Modern Living to American Homes, and Russell A. Flinchum, Ph.D., archivist of the Century Association Archives Foundation, professor, and author of American Design, discuss the ascension of industrial design during the 1930s, its relationship to the democratization of “good design” in consumer products, and the contemporary version found in mass-market stores including Target and IKEA.

Designing Tomorrow: America's World Fairs of the 1930s will be open for viewing from 5:30 - 6:30 pm.
