This on-going retrospective highlights Eileen Gray's deserved recognition as a truly singular master of 20th Century design and architecture. Balancing a poetic understanding of objects and space with a profound grasp of both the possibilities and requirements of materials and engineering, Gray produced a body of work that is simply astounding.

In 1953 Frank Lloyd Wright designed an exhibition titled A Long-Awaited Tribute: FLW's Usonian House & Pavilion, which was installed on the 5th Avenue site designated for construction of the Guggenheim Museum. The exhibit consisted of a temporary pavilion housing renderings and plans, and a complete 1700-square foot Usonian House, transported to the site and re-assembled on an parking lot next to the Sackler townhouse.
