Designing Modern Women, 1890-1990

A new exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

“Modern design of the twentieth century was profoundly shaped and enhanced by the creativity of women — as muses of modernity and shapers of new ways of living, and as designers, patrons, performers and educators. This installation, drawn entirely from MoMA’s collection, celebrates the diversity and vitality of individual artists’ engagement in the modern world, from Loïe Fuller’s pulsating turn-of-the-century performances to April Greiman’s 1980s computer-generated graphics, at the vanguard of early digital design.”

Included: Linder Sterling’s still awesome design for the Buzzcocks’ “Orgasm Addict.”
