Iwan Iwanoff’s modernist architecture has always captivated photographer Jack Lovel. Having spent his formative years in a family home designed by the Bulgarian-born, German-trained visionary, the architect’s aesthetic left a lasting impression. In 2016, determined to document Iwanoff’s stunning body of work, Jack set out to capture the remaining relics of the architect’s career. He recently published ‘Catching Light’ – with a foreword by architect/broadcaster Stuart Harrison and an introduction by son Nicolai Iwanoff – the book showcases the evolution and scale of Iwanoff’s work.
Jack Lovel and Stuart Harrison sit down to discuss Iwan Iwanoff’s revolutionary oeuvre and its documentation through a contemporary lens.
