Eileen Gray
Eileen Gray

Anglo-Irish architect and furniture designer Eileen Gray (1878–1976) was a pioneer of the Modern Movement in architecture. One of her most famous works—the E-1027 house in Roquerbrune-Cap-Martin, France—was intended as a peaceful retreat for her and her then-lover, Romanian architect and critic Jean Badovici. The house features bright murals painted by Le Corbusier, who was reportedly obsessed with the house. Gray's work represented in the Museum's collection includes her Adjustable Table from 1927 (created for her E-1027 house), and her designs have been featured in many MoMA exhibitons, the earliest being Recent Acquisitions: Architecture and Design in 1979 as well as in the more recent exhibitions, Designing Modern Women 1890–1990 (2013–2014) and How Should We Live? Propositions for the Modern Interior (2016–2017).
