21st Annual International Los Angeles Photographic Art Exposition
January 12 - 16

photo l.a. returns to the historic Santa Monica Civic Auditorium for its 21st edition. Continuing the discourse on photography’s place in the fine arts, photo l.a. provides galleries from around the globe a platform for the exhibition of vintage masterworks and contemporary photography, as well as video and multimedia installations. This exciting juxtaposition creates the unique environment that characterizes photo l.a. Over the past twenty-one years, photo l.a. has exhibited more than three hundred galleries, private dealers and publishers and has presented more than one hundred and fifty lectures and collecting seminars to the public. Our continued efforts to create a dynamic experience for our patrons has not only increased our loyal fan base, but has attracted over eleven thousand interested collectors, curators and dealers of photography each year. As the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time: Art in LA 1945 - 1980 initiative continues into January, photo l.a. will include installations focusing on post-WWII art created in Southern California. $20 Santa Monica Civic Auditorium 1855 Main Street, Santa Monica, CA www.photola.com/
