The Glass House has appointed Philip Johnson scholar Hilary Lewis as the site’s Chief Curator & Creative Director, beginning January 17th, 2017. Lewis has worked for more than two decades researching the work of Philip Johnson, and will bring her knowledge and experience to bear on the artist’s iconic building. “Having sat side-by-side with Johnson for years, I feel confident that what would honor his and David Whitney’s memory most would be for the property to evolve further as a center for the appreciation of architecture, design and art not just as a museum of Johnson and Whitney’s lives in New Canaan,” she says. “It’s an honor to have the opportunity to work directly with the Glass House as it looks forward to its second decade of public engagement.”
