This presentation will discuss some of findings from Ms. Goodman’s recent work on “Rolling 20s, Roaring Art: French Automotive Mascots,” an award-winning exhibition at Revs Institute. In the process of compiling her research into a literature review, Lauren found that these small objects embody some of the big conundrums facing automobile heritage today. Could these little sculptures point us in the right direction?
Lauren hopes her short talk will spark a lively discussion during the Q&A.
