Texas A&M University | Department of Architecture | ARCH 350 | Campagnol | NAME: Gabrielle Gonzalez UIN: 230006792 Video Questions: Visual Acoustics (a film by Eric Bricker, 2008, 83:27) This documentary traces the career of architectural photographer Julius Shulman, whose iconic images of mid-century Modernist structures defined architecture for most of the 20th century. Questions 1. Identify at least two buildings showed between 00:00:45 and 00:02:55. Frank Gehry’s Guggenheim Museum appears at 2:40 as well as Frank Lloyd Wright’s Solomon R. Guggenehim Museum appears at 1:45. 2. What happens in minutes 09:14 and 10:39? Comment on what you find interesting. There is a sense of network amongst all the famous architects of the modern movement. Because of these connections, there was an expansion for each designers approach to modernism which generated different architectural techniques that were passed through generation and location. 3. Who found Modernism in California? Richard and Dioner Neutra joined Schindler in Los Angeles in 1925. Soon after, Schindler and Neutra founded Southern California modernism. 4. Who oversaw the construction of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Freeman House in California, and also design furniture for the house? Schindler becomes the project architect and overlooks the construction of the Freeman House and also designed a myriad number of pieces of furniture for the house. 5. Based on the information provided, please write down 3 most significant buildings, facts, features, characteristics, lessons learned, and/or thoughts regarding this documentary: 1. What’s interesting is that the exploration of modernism expands into a whole new discovery based on location. Across the world, architects were adding their own style, that even in the states, there was a different discovery of modernism in California. 2. Describing modernism as a very optimistic era, perfectly describes the idea that more and more architects were designing with their own approach. Even with the minimization of ornamentation, architecture was still kept exciting because there was a new love for different designs for new spaces.

There is this sense of incapsulating the building to its maximum potential that starts to dictate what angles best represent specific architectural components and their effect of the space.
