PAX Impeller in MoMA

PAX Scientific’s elegant Lily impeller is featured in the Design and the Elastic Mind exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City.  The exhibition will highlight examples of the successful translation of disruptive innovation into usable objects and explore the relationship between design and science. 

“We’re delighted that the curators included the Lily in this exhibition,” said Jay Harman, PAX CEO and the Lily’s designer.  “This impeller employs the highly efficient—and extremely graceful—geometries of flowing water to more effectively stir fluids of all types.” 

Design and the Elastic Mind opens to the public on February 24 and runs through May 12, 2008.  For more information, visit the MoMA website, www.moma.org. [February 18, 2008]
