Pacific Standard Time: Los Angeles Art, 1945-1980

Four researchers affiliated with the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles combined efforts over about a decade to prepare a comprehensive and extensively illustrated exploration of postwar American art. The New York-centric view is altered and corrected as the full force of creative production in Los Angeles comes to the forefront. This is a lively history, with hundreds of images supporting the well-researched essays. The volume is oversize: 9.5x11.75". Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
