Our fifty-third Standing-Room-Only Lecture will have Brenda Danilowitz coming from the U.S. home of Pez to talk about Anni Albers. In his introduction to Anni Albers: On Designing (1959), her first volume of published writings, Edgar Kaufmann Jr., director of MoMA’s Department of Industrial Design from 1946 to 1948, described Anni Albers in these words: “It is not easy to separate the person, the work, and the ideas.” Brenda will try to put those parts together and present Anni Albers whole—in just twenty minutes.
Our speaker, Brenda Danilowitz, is an art historian and chief curator at the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation in Bethany, Connecticut.
Tickets are available for $10 each.

Standing-Room Only Lectures aim to present short talks about graphic design, typography, and collecting. The lectures are kept to about twenty minutes because—true to its name—the series takes place in our standing-room only gallery. So, wear comfortable shoes and bring a short attention span.
