In-Depth: Julius Shulman June 5, 2009 Julius Shulman does not see the world the way most people see it. His heart, brain and eyes become a camera, focused on the inner beauty of modern architecture. This weekend, the Oklahoma City Museum of Art presents the last chance for the public to view the results of Shulman's genius in the exhibit Julius Shulman: Oklahoma Modernism Rediscovered.
