White Towers Revisited will remain on view in the Harvey and Irwin Kroiz Gallery through April 17. This exhibition takes a second look at a vital moment in the exploration of the American commercial landscape. Inspired by their work with Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown, the architects Paul Hirshorn (b. 1941) and Steven Izenour (1940-2001) began photographing surviving examples of the pioneering White Tower hamburger chain in Camden, New York, Washington, Boston and their hometown of Philadelphia during the summer of 1970. This exhibition includes more than 30 of Izenour and Hirshorn’s photographs, printed in the early 1970s.
