5.0 out of 5 stars What a Scene!, June 25, 2006

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: LA's Early Moderns: Art, Architecture, Photography (Paperback)
The Los Angeles story has many parts, some better known than others. Writers have carefully detailed the city's social and environmental challenges, and Hollywood has never lacked for attention. But this book tells a fresher story about a relatively small but energetic group of Los Angeles painters, architects, and photographers whose early 20th-century modernism retains an extraordinary vitality. With its copious photos and illustrations (many in color), this book documents the lives and work of that scene's major figures (Edward Weston, Will Connell, Richard Neutra, Rudolph Schindler, etc.) along with dozens of others who made significant contributions to the modernist project. USC historian William Deverell provides a trenchant introduction. Highly recommended.
