The St. Louis Gateway Arch. The TWA Terminal at JFK Airport. The “Tulip chair.” Each of these was designed by unconventional master of design — and one-time Michigan resident — Eero Saarinen.
Through March 30, Cranbrook Art Museum displays “Eero Saarinen: Shaping the Future,” a comprehensive retrospective on the Finnish-born architect. And beginning Saturday, January 26, a supplemental exhibition, “Richard Knight: Photographing Saarinen,” offers a rare look into the office of Saarinen’s celebrated firm.
