Los Angeles, CA: On the evening of April 26, 2016 in Los Angeles the #TASCHEN Gallery hosted a VIP preview of MICHAEL MULLER: SHARKS; the first public exhibition of the famed photographer’s extraordinary shark encounters. An admiring crowd of fans, friends and collector’s came out to celebrate Muller and his work, including many of his subjects and collaborators like Joaquin Phoenix, Gerard Butler, Johnny Knoxville, Mark Hoppus, Emile Hirsch, David Arquette, Shepard Fairey, Samantha Ronson, Richard Lewis, Robert Patrick, contributor to the book and environmentalist Philippe Cousteau Jr. and more. The party atmosphere was enhanced by the conservation efforts of Muller and TASCHEN, who will be donating a portion of the proceeds from print sales to advocacy organizations WildAid, EarthEco, SharkSpotters, and UNESCO who all campaign for the protection of #sharks.
