Cold War. Now that we seem to be at odds with Russia again, it might be worth checking out the design show Cold War Modern: Design 1945-1970 at London's V&A Museum. The exhibit features architecture, film and pop culture on both sides of the Iron Curtain. From Sputnik and the first images from space to Stanley Kubrick films, paintings by Rauchenger and renderings of Buckminster Fuller's 1962 plans for a geodesic Dome over Manhattan, the pieces all work together to present a snapshot of the Cold War era.
