Tim Long: Daniel Burnham's Enduring Vision for the Phillipines

Event Type: 
Exhibit
Friday, September 4, 2009 - Sunday, January 10, 2010
Two years before he began work on the “Plan of Chicago,” Daniel Burnham drew plans to modernize Manila, the capitol of the Philippine Islands, and Baguio, a nearby small city. The photography exhibition, “Daniel Burnham’s Enduring Vision for the Philippines,” documents the powerful presence the buildings and parks built to Burnham’s plan still have in the often-chaotic landscapes of these two cities. Tim Long, a Chicago landscape and architectural photographer, worked on this project from 2006 to 2008 with assistance from a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.
