fab title Fabulous Pre Finds

It just wouldn’t be modern art if it didn’t offer some pointed social commentary. The Museum of Modern Art in New York City gives new meaning to the phrase “home delivery” as it welcomes a new exhibit exploring the history of pre-fabricated housing. Home Delivery: Fabricating the Modern Dwelling, of course, includes a look toward the future with a five-story structure dubbed the Cellophane House. It consists of fifteen easy-to-assemble chunks and runs on solar power. Sorry, it’s not available for purchase just yet. But someday such options might provide welcome alternatives.
