Greta Magnusson Grossman: Furniture and Lighting

Published on the occasion of The Drawing Center's exhibition, Greta Magnusson Grossman: Furniture and Lighting presents full-color plates and details of the never-before-seen drawings of the Swedish-born, Los Angeles-based architect and industrial designer. A two-time recipient of the Museum of Modern Art's Good Design award, Grossman remains an under-recognized, yet highly influential figure in the Southern California design movement of the 1950s and 60s. The book, number 81 in the Drawing Papers series, features an essay by exhibition curator Brett Littman and an introduction by Evan Snyderman, principal of R 20th Century in New York City, as well as several archival photographs of Grossman's residential buildings, interiors, and furnishings.
