Modernism Rediscovered - Reviews
"As a thorough document of an architectural movement and an invitation for readers to consider the permanence of architectural modernism, the book more than succeeds. It's also fun to look at the pictures."The Austin ChronicleUnited States |
|
"Serraino and Shulman's work provides a vast inventory of significant, unrecognized work, a great bibliography and a short description of each architectural film represented. Is is a veritable encyclopedia of forgotten modernism."DOCOMOMOUnited States |
|
"The true masterpieces in this book are Shulman's witty, insightful photographs. Shulman reveals the colorful, playful, and humane aspects of Modernism often neglected in histories of the movement."MetropolisUnited States |
|
"This treasure trove will captivate architecture historians and midcentury Modern design buffs."Library JournalUnited States |
|
"With the wide angle lens of architectural photography, Shulman captured not only the space of these buildings. He rendered their interrelation with nature and their spirit of a new way of life, and kept the balance of simplicity with a taste of Hollywood glamour.... If 'Modernism Rediscovered' is a splendidly illustrated cocktail of architecture, glamour, and nature, then designers feasting on imagination and form in the new millennium will be delighted by the fresh taste. "Architecture WeekUnited States |

"I was given your book on Julius Shulman as a Christmas present. It is an excellent and comprehensive book, and raises the very provocative idea of the 'forgotten' modern designers. Congratulations on producing such a fine book and for adding so much to the debate about the meaning of the modern legacy." -- From a letter to Pierluigi SerrainoChandler McCoyUnited States |

"The structures in this book are much more than superficial expressions of a homeowner's tastes; they sum up the intimate dreams of a generation. For many, those dreams--failed or not--still have meaningful cultural currency. As such, Shulman's book is an optimistic lens into our own future."Los Angeles TimesUnited States |
|
"This is a wonderful book for photography and architecture enthusiasts alike, as well as a privileged peek into a lesser-known side of Modernism."Picture magazineUnited States |
