Exhibit: ‘Zaha Hadid: Form in Motion’

Courtesy the Philadelphia Museum of Art

Her designs curve, swoop, sculpt, and bend, but the Zaha touch has morphed more than buildings, as this Philadelphia Museum of Art exhbition shows. Zaha Hadid: Form in Motion, running from Sept. 17 to March 25, is the first to display the Pritzker Prize winner’s product designs. The Z-Chair, Swarovski-crystal jewelry, Lacoste shoes (shown), and the prototype Z-car I all display her signature biomorphic style, which she describes as “virtuoso of elegance.” • philamuseum.org
