21st Annual Int'l Los Angeles Photographic Art Expo

photo l.a. returns to the historic Santa Monica Civic Auditorium for its 21st edition Jan. 12-16.

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 21 years, photo l.a. has exhibited more than 300 galleries, private dealers and publishers and has presented more than 150 lectures and collecting seminars to the public. This exhibit attracts over 11,000 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. January is also LA Arts Month, a collective effort by the city and its arts organizations to attract enthusiasts and collectors to Los Angeles.
