Matthew Sullivan and Design that Doesn’t Save the World

Hosted by

Postmodernism was a colorful reaction to Modernism’s high seriousness. Now Matthew Sullivan and a new generation of designers are revisiting the attitude, the aesthetics, and the arcane theory of the rebel designers post-68. Maura Lucking and Matthew Sullivan discuss why. And, Matt Holzman explores a Santa Monica development that almost destroyed the Santa Monica Pier and moved a community from right to left.
