Summary: "In The Brillo Box Archive, Michael J. Golec situates the image of the Brillo® box at the intersection of design, aesthetics, and art history, tracking the familiar household item from the kitchen, to the art world, and into a critical and theoretical discourse. This tripartite approach posits the Brillo® box as a record, an archive of mid-twentieth-century visual and industrial culture."--Publisher's website.
