Ron Gilad: October 12

Museum of Modern Art
The Celeste Bartos Theater
Cullman Education Building
6:30 p.m.

Ron Gilad co-founded Designfenzider in 2001. Selected by Forbes as one of 2007's ten tastemakers in industrial design, Gilad creates hybrid objects that straddle the line between abstraction and function. His work—from candlesticks made with wine glasses to chandeliers constructed from task lamps—is simultaneously elegant and witty. Gilad attended the Industrial Design Department at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem. Tickets ($10; members $8; students, seniors, and staff of other museums $5) can be purchased at the lobby information desk, the Film desk, the Cullman Building lobby, or online at www.ticketweb.com.
