We love to support the enriching experience that art can bring to our lives. As busy women balancing work, family, and life, we encourage you to make time for inspiration. For those of you living in L.A. or here on a visit, announcing a new venue to enjoy the art of photography.On March 27, 2009, the Annenberg Space for Photography will open to the public. Los Angeles and it's rich and incredibly diverse culture, is the inspiration for their opening exhibit. Located at the Century Plaza building, 2000 Avenue of the Stars in Century City, it is the site of the original Shubart Theatre.
The building was designed to resemble an actual camera, with a rectangular exterior and a circular rotunda whose ceiling is modeled after a camera shutter. In addition to photo gallery space, the architecture also includes a circular interior that features a digital viewing space with multiple high resolution screens where guests can see even more photos.
The inaugural exhibition, titled “L8s Ang3les,” features the work of seven prominent L.A. photographers including Julius Shulman (who at 98 years old, showed up at the party in a wheelchair), John Baldessari, Greg Gorman, Lauren Greenfield and four Times photographers, Carolyn Cole, Kirk McKoy, Genaro Molina and Lawrence K. Ho. The show will be open from March 27 - June 28, 2009. Admission is free.
