Photography

Julius Shulman was an American architectural photographer whose precisely composed black-and-white images became the visual foundation for modernist architecture's global identity in the postwar period. Working primarily in Southern California from the 1930s onward, he photographed the region's pioneering residential designs with a formal clarity that transformed buildings into iconic objects. His photographs of Case Study Houses and works by Richard Neutra, Charles and Ray Eames, and Eero Saarinen established the visual language through which mid-century modernism was understood and celebrated internationally.
