David Schalliol, Isolated Building Studies

A smart comment by the interviewer for ArchDaily, Sarah Wesseler, about his work:

There’s been a lot of discussion of late in the architecture community about how to deal with existing building stock and how buildings should relate to their context. Most architectural photography, however, doesn’t seem to have much connection with these issues, for the perfectly valid reason that it’s generally a commercial product designed to make an individual project look as good as possible.

This comment made me think about the architecture photographer Julius Schulman, and how uncritical the documentary about his life was about this point.
