Description

Edited by Beatriz Colomina, Annmarie Brennan and Jeannie Kim

Cold War Hot Houses casts a clear, often playful, eye on this pivotal time in history, examining topics as diverse as the creation of the interstate highway system and the shopping center, and the domestication of the national parks as well as the production of such seemingly mundane products as the drive-in theater, aluminum foil, and the king-size bed. The result is a vivid snapshot of American culture that still resonates today.
