When I Think of Home: Images from L.A. ArchivesMain MenuIntroductionThe greater Los Angeles area is on the traditional lands of the Gabrielino/Tongva, Chumash, Fernandeño Tataviam and Yuhaaviatam/Maarenga’yam (Serrano) peoples. We acknowledge their presence here since time immemorial and recognize their continuing connection to the land, to the water and to their ancestors.L.A.

The functional, unornamented facades and large volumes of the housing block displays an aesthetic not seen in much public housing of this time. Nor such designs would be available to the many African-American workers that would call Pueblo del Rio home.2020-09-30T15:38:55-07:00circa 1948Getty Research Institute, Research LibraryIn Copyright33.8505662,-118.195331Leonard Nadel photographs and other material relating to housing and urban redevelopment in Los Angeles, 1947-1998, The Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles, Accession no. 2002.M.42.Los Angeles, Calif.Leonard Nadel (1916-1990)Curtis Fletcher3225f3b99ebb95ebd811595627293f68f680673e

Presently, the collections are strongest in the history of western European art and culture in Europe and North America; however, in recent years, they have expanded to include other areas, such as Latin America, Eastern Europe, and selected regions of Asia. The library's foundation lies in its special collections of original documents and objects. Recent acquisitions and initiatives have documented developments during the postwar years in Southern California. The special collections include contemporary artists' photographers' by Los Angeles artists; archives and manuscripts of Southern California artists, writers, and curators such as Sam Francis, Robert Irwin, and Henry Hopkins; archives of art publications such as High Performance magazine; prints, drawings, and multiples, including a complete set of those produced by Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions; rare photographs and photographers archives, such as Charles Brittin's; architectural drawings and comprehensive archives such as John Parkinson's drawings for Union Station, the Walt Disney Concert Hall documentation, the Pierre Koenig and John Lautner archives, and the Julius Shulman Photography Archive highlighting Los Angeles architecture. Documenting the advanced art that put Los Angeles and Southern California on the map of the international art world, Long Beach Museum of Art Video Archive, now part of the Research Library's collections, contains close to 5000 tapes and supporting files. http://www.getty.edu/research/structured_gallery2020-10-09T12:13:03-07:00Likhita Sureshfa36a2f3506609c5e2c064df653783c84fd35c54
