Exhibition

Elegance in the Sky: The Architecture of Rosario Candela

May 17 – Oct 28
Museum of the City of New York

More Information

With some 75 buildings to his credit, Rosario Candela played a major role in shaping the architectural legacy of 20th-century New York—the distinctive “prewar” streetscapes of Park and Fifth Avenues and Sutton Place in particular. Elegance in the Sky: The Architecture of Rosario Candela revisits the setback terraces and neo-Georgian and Art Deco ornament of Candela-designed high-rise apartments. His buildings established new standards of chic urban living for some of New York’s wealthiest citizens and still rank among the most prized in the city, almost a century after they were built.

The exhibition is designed by Peter Pennoyer Architects with graphic design by Tsang/ Seymour.
