The Kitchen and Its Discontents

Los Angeles County Museum of Art

Sep 27, 2026 – Mar 14, 2027 Miracle Mile

Two modernist kitchens from the collection, by Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky and by Charlotte Perriand and Le Corbusier, set against images of kitchen life.

Schütte-Lihotzky’s kitchen for the New Frankfurt social housing program (1926–30) and Perriand and Le Corbusier’s for the Unité d’Habitation in Marseille (1948–50) applied efficiency and modular design to ease women’s work at home. Photographs, prints and advertisements from the collection, among them a Cindy Sherman film still, show the messier reality. It runs alongside Home of the Future.
