TRIUMVIRATE: MCKIM MEAD & WHITE ART, ARCHITECTURE, SCANDAL, AND CLASS IN AMERICA’S GILDED AGE
Mosette Broderick, renowned architectural and social historian illustrates the rich, fascinating saga of the most influential architectural firm of American’s Gilded Age. Charles McKim, William Mead, and Stanford White came together bound by the notion that architecture could shape a nation in transition, and, in so doing, elevated the standard on the world’s stage. Professor Broderick’s new book on the subject (Knopf, 2010) will be available for sale and signing at the event.
