An exhibition exploring the role designers and architects play in saving endangered Modern buildings, including some of Utah's modern masterpieces.  Modernism at Risk: Modern Solutions for Saving Modern Landmarks features case studies with works by Marcel Breuer, Paul Rudolph, the Bauhaus, Warren Platner, and Edward Durell Stone, with photographs by Andrew Moore.
