The High Museum of Art in Atlanta is hosting "John Portman: Art & Architecture," an exhibition featuring architectural projects, furniture, paintings, and sculpture by Atlanta-based architect and artist John Portman. The 15 completed and current architectural projects featured span five decades of national and international developments, including the Hyatt Regency Atlanta (1967), renowned as the first modern atrium hotel. The projects are presented with large-scale photographs, design plans, elevations, text, articles, and in some cases, architectural models. The exhibition is accompanied by a full-color catalogue with a major essay by Paul Goldberger, historian and architecture critic for The New Yorker since 1997.
