Featuring essays by Preston Scott Cohen and Jennifer Bonner, among others, a new book edited by Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) dean Mohsen Mostafavi, Intl. Assoc. AIA, examines the work of Atlanta architect John Portman, FAIA. Portman’s America: & Other Speculations (GSD and Lars Müller Publishers, 2017) includes commissioned shots by Iwan Baan. “The resulting photographs, rather than being formal or idealized images of buildings, capture the view as if in a state of distraction; Portman’s architecture, and by extension Portman’s America, is presented as it is today, for all to see,” Mostafavi writes.
