Alexander Girard
Collaborators and close friend, Charles Eames, described Girard as a "Florentine Magpie...there is perhaps no designer more concerned with the selection of beautiful things and their relation to our environment than Alexander Girard."
Girard and his wife Susan were avid collectors of folk art. The Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, where they lived, holds 90,000 works from their personal collection. The Girard family lovingly continues to uphold the legacy of Girard with thoughtful collaborations.
