TROPOLISM

I generally don't announce book parties, but this one deserves mentioning. First, because it comes from R20th Century [warning: annoying browser resize approaching], which has had a string of exhibitions over the last five years looking at under-appreciated modern architects like Verner Panton (just as he was getting re-popular), Sérgio Rodrigues, and Charles Hollis Jones.

The second reason I mention it is because this one is about Norman Jaffe who is one of the singular modernist voices defining Hamptons luxury in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Forget about the Bunshaft House...it's gone. It's time to pay attention to this guy's work, and keep the good ones around. See you there.
