Modernism / Palm Springs

It's February, so that means it's time to go to Palm Springs. 

Find out more about the show, here.

Palm Springs Modernism Week is not just about buying junk. There are tons of great events, including a talk by my buddy Darren Bradley, who is part of an event called The New Photographers of Mid-Century Modern Architecture. It takes place on February 19. Find out more, here.

Photographer Dan Chavkin will be part of The New Photographers talk as well.  He also has new book, Unseen Midcentury Desert Modern, which includes architecture that has been largely unseen or overlooked. He'll be doing a book signing on February 14th. Go here for more information.
