If you are an architect, furniture designer, or industrial designer, having your work beautifully photographed is critical. A great image can entice potential clients and add a level of drama and romance to an artist’s vision. Julius Shulman is the most renowned architectural photographer. He was discovered by Frank Lloyd Wright and went on to shoot some of the most iconic images of LA architecture. Documentairan, Eric Bricker, is director of Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman, and has allowed brooklynmodern to show the trailer of his film which will be opening this coming fall. Dustin Hoffman narrates and the movie features many design stars—architect Frank Gehry, designer Tom Ford, artist Ed Ruscha, publisher Benedikt Taschen. The film was the winner of the 2009 Palm Springs International Film Festival Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature.
