SUMMARY:Brian D. Goldstein at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Brian D. Goldstein—architectural and urban historian\, an associate professor and chair of the Art History Program at Swarthmore College\, and author of the award-winning book The Roots of Urban Renaissance—for a discussion of his new book\, Max Bond: The Life and Work of the People’s Architect. \nAbout Max Bond\nThe first biography of a preeminent postwar architect who championed the cause of freedom through architecture and transformed Black history and modernism. \nJ. Max Bond Jr. (1935–2009) was a civil rights activist\, educator\, and architect who shaped such iconic structures as the King Center for Nonviolent Social Change in Atlanta\, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington\, DC\, and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum in Manhattan. Driven by the concerns of the civil rights movement\, he insisted on a practice centered on deep social engagement during years when his profession became preoccupied with celebrity and spectacle. \nHarvard educated and son of an eminent African American family\, Bond designed housing\, cultural institutions\, community centers\, and campuses amid an era of sweeping changes in architecture\, urbanism\, and American culture. He expressed an architectural vision that was democratic and inclusive\, international in orientation\, and celebratory of cities and their diverse residents. Yet his work has often been overlooked. Award-winning historian Brian Goldstein renders it visible. \nBeautifully illustrated\, Max Bond is the definitive biography of one of the most important architects of our time\, whose aspiration toward an architecture by and for the people was as urgent in his day as it remains in our own.
