Featuring assessments of architectural examples ranging from Mies van der Rohe’s Seagram Building to Elvis Presley’s Graceland estate, as well as vintage photographs, advertisements, and posters, this book argues that new audiences and client groups with tastes rooted in popular entertainment made their presence felt in the cultural marketplace during the postwar period.
