Charles Mintz: Lustron Stories
Massillon Museum
Jan. 9, 2024 - Feb. 28, 2021
Studio M features “Lustron Stories”, by Charles Mintz from January 9, 2021 through February 28, 2021. The photographs are revealing portraits of ordinary people in or beside their homes. Lustron houses were prefabricated homes manufactured between 1948 and 1950 in Columbus, Ohio. Each photograph tells a story. Mintz says, “When it comes to the inside of a home, people are both very diverse, and very individual. Some I visited were ‘perfect’, with nothing out of place. Most were full of the people’s lives, both in decoration and with stuff.” To view an artist presentation about the exhibition, tune in to Massillon Museum’s Facebook and YouTube channel or MCTV Channels 21 and 621 on Tuesday, January 26, 12PM EST.
