Effervescent, eclectic and unpredictable, Buckminster Fuller is one of the titans of twentieth-century design. Actively making work for over half a century, Fuller became known more as a universal problem-solver than a designer. Seeking to "do more with less," Fuller used this precept as a guiding principle for innovating and creating objects and ideas that improved the day-to-day quality of human life. Largely told in his own words, this rare documentary captures Fuller at the peak of his creative influence.
This film event is part of MAD's Midcentury Masters series: This film series looks at the life and work of an influential group of postwar architects and designers whose achievements continue to inspire the way we think and move through space today.
