“A Dark, a Light, a Bright: The Designs of Dorothy Liebes,” which organizers say is the first exhibit devoted solely to her in over 50 years, opened in July and runs through Feb. 4, 2024. The title is taken from a Liebes rule for designing textiles, which produced vibrant results, particularly when viewed from today’s tendency toward neutrals and muted shades.Liebes collaborated not just with architects and designers but with major brands like Lurex and DuPont.“She had a sense early on of the importance of textiles in interior design. She also knew how to read a blueprint, and she had a very analytical perspective. In a different decade, she might have become an architect,” says Winton.

In addition to her design expertise, Liebes could communicate it. She frequently appeared on television and in magazines, and mentored young weavers and designers in her studios in California and, later, New York.Among highlights of the show are the brave — and bright — blue and green color combination in the first-class observation lounge of the ocean liner S.S. United States. There are the brilliant reds and blues of the first-class seating on American Airlines flagship 747; the glamorous textile backdrops of the 1947 film “Eastside, Westside”; and the dazzling upholstery of the 1957 Chrysler Plymouth Fury.

There also are Liebes’ collaborations with fashion designers Clare Potter and Bonnie Cashin, revealing the frequent interplay between fashion and interior design.

“There is nothing like what I call a ‘whameroo’ color to make the whole thing come alive,” Liebes told Potter when Potter said she loved the way Liebes would “inject something startling” in her work.“Who is going to choose the judges on the court now? The Mexican people. That’s the big difference between what once was and what now is,” Sheinbaum said Monday as she called on Mexicans to vote.

“And that,” she added, “is democracy.”Many on the ballot won a lottery after being screened by committees made up of people from the three branches of government — two of which are controlled by the president’s party. To qualify, candidates need a law degree, five years of professional experience, an essay and letters of recommendation from friends and colleagues.
