My upcoming panel is titled “Eileen Gray: Why Now?” Because of the following: 
Mary McGuckian’s featured film “The Price of Desire” will air this month in Mexico, Ireland, and France; Marco Orsini’s documentary “Gray Matters” will air next month in the UK; Jennifer Goff’s excellent book “Eileen Gray, her World and her Work” was published last month; E.1027, the villa Gray designed for her lover, architect Jean Badovici will open to the public (for the first time since it was completed in 1929) on May 1, 2015; The Pompidou’s show on Eileen Gray will travel to the Bard Graduate Center (my lama mater); and finally, Julian Lennon’s photographic prints, a limited edition box set of stills by Julian Lennon of portraits of the characters from the Eileen Gray film The Price of Desire published in a limited edition box set by world-renowned fine-art printers, Stoney Road Press of Ireland. I will moderate a panel “Eileen Gray: Why Now?” with Jennifer Goff, Adriana Friedman, Sandra Gering, and Cloé Pitiot. Tickets are available now.

Thanks for highlighting all the Gray activity. Our E1027 knockoff, purchased in the 1980's at Abodio as office reception furniture, has travelled with us through multiple offices and homes, and sits beside me now in our 1928 cottage home, a (to me) delightful illustration of the extremes of design available for public consideration in that year.

PS: A gentle observation from a one-time visual designer: Leading in your site? Hopefully owning a Gray knock-off doesn't disqualify me from offering that.
