George Nelson: Architect / Writer / Designer / Teacher
Description
Designer Year
The year 2008 marks the 100th birthday of George
Nelson (1908-1986), one of the most influential figures in American
design during the second half of the twentieth century. Nelson, who
earned an architectural degree from Yale, was not only a leading
designer and notable architect, but also a prominent author, editor,
lecturer, exhibition designer, and a passionate photographer.
The exhibition catalogue accompanies the first
comprehensive retrospective of George Nelson's work. With eight essays
by German and American design historians, the publication deals with
all of the areas in Nelson's oeuvre, many of which are presented here
for the first time. The catalogue also includes an illustrated list of
works. The majority of illustrations, previously unpublished, come from
the Nelson Estate in the Vitra Design Museum Archive.
