Architecture in PhotographyThis exhibition of Architecture in Photography has been curated to pair portraits of esteemed, internationally recognized modern and contemporary architects with an image, or images, of at least one or more of their creations. All photographs presented have been taken by formidable photographers, including some of the foremost of this last century. To give an example, portraits of Walter Gropius by Philippe Halsman and Lucia Moholy coupled with images of the Bauhaus as taken by Lucia Moholy and Iwao Yamawaki.

This exhibition has been curated from sources in New York, Los Angeles, Berlin and Barcelona and Milan.
