UPCOMING EVENTS: Saturday, July 16th is John Lautner Day


That's right. 
The city of Los Angeles officially proclaimed July 16th "John Lautner Day".

Because, as devout readers of my incredible blog, you already know how John Lautner is
 I will skip directly to the point...

The John Lautner Foundation has an extensive calendar of activities this year in celebration of Mr. Lautners 100 birthday. 

I had no idea. 

Here is a small selection:
From July 16 - July 24, LACMA has a small exhibition featuring an abstracted composition, archival model, and photographs of Lautner's famous Goldstein Office...

  

...never heard of the Goldstein Office, but that's the point, right? 

On July 30th at 7:00, American Cinematheque and The Egyptian Theater present a double feature to pay tribute to the architect. 

At a date yet to be announced (for some reason), The Getty Research Institute is hosting a Behind The Scenes tour of their archive....which you can get a tiny glimpse of here:


And so much more!!!
