Julius Shulman
Posted on 14/08/10.
Julius Shulman (October 10, 1910 – July 15, 2009) was an American architectural photographer best known for this photograph Case Study House #22, Los Angeles, 1960. Shulman’s photography spread California Mid-century modern around the world. Some of his photographs, like the iconic shots of Frank Lloyd Wright’s or Pierre Koenig’s remarkable structures, have been published countless times. The brilliance of buildings like those by Charles Eames, as well as those of his close friend, Richard Neutra, was first brought to light by Shulman’s photography.
Celebrating Shulman’s life and career, the film VISUAL ACOUSTICS narrated by Dustin Hoffman is must see.

Grandmother’s Cellar
Posted on 04/08/10.
Born in Germany Susanne Ludwig lives and works in London. In 2008 she completed her MA at the Royal College of Art Photography Department. “While photographing the series “Grandmother’s Cellar” I acted in darkness and tried to transmit my emotions upon the image and “reanimate” this space. In my next project I want to continue to photograph in this technique (“drawing with light” = photography) in places that are important or familiar to me in London.”

60 seconds after you snap
Posted on 26/07/10.
Imagine the magic when the Polaroid Land camera first came out back in 1948; the technology is still something of a marvel today. “See this new miracle of photography in action today – and you’ll want a camera to enjoy for years to come.”

Brickell Tilt-shift
Posted on 15/07/10.
Intrigued by the current tilt-shift craze in photography we have just done our first experiment. This was a shot taken in Brickell, Miami a while back and we have retrospectively altered it in Photoshop to look like a tilt-shift miniature scale model. Interesting stuff with great potential.

Studien nach der Natur (Studies After Nature) by German artist Bergbauer is an archive of 665 photographs of 152 different rock forms that were found at the roadside. Bergbauer photographed them from various perspectives and arranged them, by “form and applicability.” Each of the plates are presented on solid off white backgrounds and are based on the compositional criteria of the form of the object and positioning of the objects within Bergbauer’s defined space.
