Louis Sullivan Documentary
Whitecap Films presents Louis Sullivan: The Struggle for American Architecture an upcoming feature-length documentary that tells the story of the revolutionary Chicago architect Louis Sullivan (1856-1924), his rapid rise to fame, tragic decline, and one man's lonely crusade fifty years later to save Sullivan's work from total destruction. Set for completion in late 2010 more
The Louis Sullivan documentary looks VERY interesting! He was a brilliant architect but had a sad end due to alcoholism and very few commissions late in life but he continued to design some gorgeous "jewel-box" small town banks throughout the mid-west. Some of them still remain. Do you know if the documentary will be shown on PBS stations?
