His images document the growth of global megacities and portray buildings by prominent contemporary architects including Herzog \u0026amp; de Meuron, Rem Koolhaas and Zaha Hadid. Baan's vibrant realism presents architecture not as an abstract ideal, but as the setting of everyday life, an organic part of the urban fabric--be it suburban sprawl or the booming metropoles of Africa and Asia.\u003cbr\u003eThis first comprehensive publication on the Dutch photographer's work includes a number of Baan's iconic works, many of which are familiar from magazines and books, as well as photographs of vernacular and informal architecture all around the world, from the round Tulou of southern China to the rock-hewn churches of Ethiopia. In addition to extensive image plates, the publication includes several text contributions on topics such as the current discourse on architectural photography and the classification and contextualization of Baan's work within it. Interviews and narrative text elements offer insight into the artist's creative process.\u003cbr\u003eDutch photographer \u003cb\u003eIwan Baan\u003c\/b\u003e (born 1975) has collaborated on several successful book projects such as \u003ci\u003eBrasilia \u0026amp; Chandigarh: Living with Modernity\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFrancis KÃ©rÃ© \u0026amp; Iwan Baan: Momentum of Light\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDudok by Iwan Baan\u003c\/i\u003e.
