Through the ages, women have never had a lack of complaints about the inequalities between men and women.

So I was naturally ecstatic when I saw the trailer for his documentary called Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman and saw that exact photo being used on the movie poster. One glimpse of the trailer and the sheer beauty of the images the man captured in his storied career will astound even Shulman neophytes.

Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman opens October 9th at the Cinema Village (22 E. 12th St.) followed by a post-screening Q+A with director Eric Brickner.
