The artist was commissioned to develop a photographic portfolio of important Phoenix buildings from the post-World War II era. Lundgren is working closely with the Public Art Program and the Office of Historic Preservation to select the buildings and to create a view of each that best describes its architectural significance.

The photographs will be exhibited in City buildings and will serve as a resource for residents, planners, and scholars interested in the City's finest historic structures.

Lundgren's photographs of the Phoenix Towers (above) and Financial Center (below) are among the first images from this project.
