As one of the earliest modernist house to invite contemporary art and architectural interventions into its home, the Schindler House has served as an exhibitionary model for a generation of cultural practitioners working to enliven domestic modernist sites. Exhibition-Making in the Modern House brings together former MAK Center director Kimberli Meyer and architecture curator and theorist Sylvia Lavin in dialogue on the opportunities, tensions, and contradictions that attend to exhibition-making in the modernist house. The discussion will draw from past projects while engaging with contemporary questions on the house as a system of display.
