Here are some random excerpts from Peter Knego's sold out 50-minute presentation "Modernism Rules The Waves: The Edgy Elegance of Mid Twentieth Century Ocean Liners and Cruise Ships" for Palm Springs Modernism 2024. In this 12 minute video, Peter Knego brings some of his favorite ships and their design elements to life for the non-ship loving world. This is not the history of all passenger ship design, nor the history of cruising but rather a way for people to appreciate the aesthetics and some of the backstory of key MidCentury liners and cruise ships. From floating legends like the LURLINE, STOCKHOLM, GIULIO CESARE, AUGUSTUS, ANDREA DORIA and ROTTERDAM to designers like Raymond Loewy, Nino Zoncada, Gio Ponti and J.A. Van Tienhoven, Knego waxes nostalgic with a few "zingers" to help a landlubbing crowd fully appreciate these lovely creations. #oldships #palmspringsmodernism24 #palmspringsmodernism2024 #classicliners #classicships #oceanliners #gioponti #raymondloewy #sslurline #ssandreadoria
