We will explore Marion's extraordinary career and position her as a British 20th century Art Deco designer.
Renowned for her ’sculpted rugs’, this lecture will reveal Dorn’s various commissions from the 1920s to the 1960s, which included designs for the Savoy Hotel Group in London, Eltham Palace, the London Underground and the White House in Washington DC.
