This large-scale survey of one of the most important and persistent movements of modern design in the United States in the twentieth century shines a light on Cranbrook’s pivotal role in its development and the contributions of additional women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and designers of color during this period. Based on the famous quote by Cranbrook alumnus and teacher Charles Eames, “Eventually everything connects: people, ideas, objects,” the exhibition contains some 200 works by nearly 100 artists, architects, and designers that explore the multitude of relationships between these three fundamental pillars. The exhibition features many new additions to Cranbrook’s collection of important furniture, textiles, and furnishings from the period.
