In the Caribbean, Rudi Rada photographed new buildings intruding artistically and commercially into the natural environment while Annette Rada adopted a more ethnographic approach, photographing local people amid burgeoning mass tourism. Whether in South Florida, Cuba, or elsewhere in their travels, the work of the Radas captured postwar architectural evolution, as well as challenges faced by populations adapting to modernization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a wealth of never-before-published photographs and material from several archives and collections, \u003ci\u003eRada Photography\u003c\/i\u003e adds portrayals of the largely overlooked mid-century architecture of South Florida and the Caribbean to existing architectural photography in the US and Latin America.
