  • Figuring the Future in Los(T) Angeles
    1 MUSEUM DIGITAL ARCHIVE NOW DIG THIS! ART & BLACK LOS ANGELES 1960–1980 Figuring the Future in Los(t) Angeles HAZEL V. CARBY ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN COMPARATIVE AMERICAN STUDIES: AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL 1, NO. 1 (2003): 19–34. Los Angeles, California, is a city that has a very complex symbolic relation to the rest of the US. For me, the story of the Belmont Learning Center vividly dramatizes the betrayal of minority dreams by the boosterism, corruption, ineptitude, and potential for environmental disaster that characterizes the political culture of the city. Planned more than a decade ago at a projected cost of $200 million, it will be, if completed, the most expensive public high school ever built in the US.1 Construction of the Belmont Learning Center proceeded despite warnings issued by the State Division of Oil and Gas about the dangers of the site, an abandoned oil field. The black officials of the school board were desperate to solve the overcrowding and generally dire conditions in which so many young black, Latino, and poor students do not get educated in the Los Angeles Unified School District. But potentially explosive methane gas and toxic hydrogen sulfide gas, known to cause neurological damage, seeped into the school structure for which there appeared to be no remediation. Finally, after spending $170 million, the School Board voted in January 2000 to abandon the project.2 However, Superintendent Roy Romer revived the project, and, with $175 million spent so far, completion could add yet another $100 million to the costs. Oil-well logs have revealed an earthquake fault underneath already existing buildings on the campus; any seismic activity would cause a rush of the gases with devastating consequences.3 More than a metaphor for the city, this unfolding tragic narrative actually embodies the multi-layered political, social, economic, racialized and environmental complexity of Los Angeles from its fissures and abandoned oil fields below ground to the concrete highways soaring through, around and above its neighborhoods.

  • A Publisher and an Antique Dealer for Most of His Life, Streeter Blair (1888–1966) Began Painting at the Age of 61 in 1949
    1960 Paintings by Streeter Blair (January 12–February 7) A publisher and an antique dealer for most of his life, Streeter Blair (1888–1966) began painting at the age of 61 in 1949. Blair became quite successful in a short amount of time with numerous exhibitions across the United States and Europe, including several one-man shows as early as 1951. He sought to recapture “those social and business customs which ended when motor cars became common in 1912, changing the life of America’s activities” in his artwork. He believed future generations should have a chance to visually examine a period in the United States before drastic technological change. This exhibition displayed twenty-one of his paintings and was well received by the public. Three of his paintings, the Eisenhower Farm loaned by Mr. & Mrs. George Walker, Bread Basket loaned by Mr. Peter Walker, and Highland Farm loaned by Miss Helen Moore, were sold during the exhibition. [Newsletter, memo, various letters] The Private World of Pablo Picasso (January 15–February 7) A notable exhibition of paintings, drawings, and graphics by Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), accompanied by photographs of Picasso by Life photographer, David Douglas Duncan (1916– 2018). Over thirty pieces were exhibited dating from 1900 to 1956 representing Picasso’s Lautrec, Cubist, Classic, and Guernica periods. These pieces supplemented the 181 Duncan photographs, shown through the arrangement of the American Federation of Art. The selected photographs were from the book of the same title by Duncan and were the first ever taken of Picasso in his home and studio.

  • Introductory Essay 3 of 3
    Hollywood Royale: Out of the School of Los Angeles Introductory Essay 3 of 3: Glamour Reborn: Out of the School of Los Angeles By Charles Churchward HOLLYWOOD, September, 1985 — LA’s oven-like Santa Ana winds blew down from the nearby Mojave Desert on the dusty sidewalks of Melrose Avenue one unseasonably warm evening. The city’s nascent style elite were about to descend on the G. Ray Hawkins Gallery for an exhibition highlighting the work of three local, up-and-coming portrait photographers whose only mutual connection was that their work had been spotted in the pages of Andy Warhol’s proto-celebrity magazine, Interview. The winds of creative change were in the air. Warhol began Interview in New York in 1969 as a clever way to receive invitations to screenings and meet celebrities in society and entertainment. More importantly, it was a new way for Warhol to express his ongoing obsession with the idea of fame. In its bare beginnings, the crudely-printed magazine was an exploration, primarily made up of verbatim interviews with individuals that fascinated Warhol, illustrated with his famous Polaroids, and occasionally, a gratuitous page or two dedicated to campy publicity stills from golden-age Hollywood films. But by the late-1970s, Interview had started to show some polish, becoming an important platform for magazine photography. With virtually no budget and fueled by Warhol’s ever growing interest in the concept of Hollywood celebrity, Warhol and his magazine’s editors, Bob Colacello and later, Gael Love, sought out the next generation of young artists and photographers hungry to find a showcase for their work.

    A FILM BY DAVID ORR refSTEVEN CULPresh SCOTT MICHAEL CAMPBELL www.refreshfilm.com ______________________________________________________________________________ LOGLINE A wealthy but chronically unhappy businessman at the end of his rope hires a mysterious company that promises an effective—but irrevocable—solution to his problem. SYNOPSIS Roger Dean (Steven Culp), a successful businessman, has been chronically unhappy for years. Over time, he has attempted a wide range of remedies, some prescribed, some not; some orthodox, some radical, but none have worked for him. At the end of his rope, he approaches PDLAS, a mysterious private company that promises an effective—but irrevocable—solution. He is assured that the company has a 100% success rate, and that he will emerge “completely refreshed.” What ultimately happens to Roger is of course much, much more than he bargained for. CONTACT Keith Gayhart (310) 837-6008 [email protected] www.refreshfilm.com ______________________________________________________________________________ www.refreshfilm.com | 1 ______________________________________________________________________________ PRODUCTION NOTES INSPIRATION Writer/director David Orr tells the story of the film’s genesis: “The tableau and mood of Refresh was inspired by a visit to a sleep study clinic—a place where you spend the night while being monitored by both video cameras and electronic sensors that are attached to your body. This particular facility was located in an office building that was deserted, because it was night and all the regular building and office workers were gone. There wasn’t a soul around until you got to the actual, dimly lit clinic office, where everyone looked sleep-deprived.” “In general I think there’s a universal feeling that being in a medical facility and dealing with medical staff—when you’re usually at your most vulnerable—can be stressful and depressing.
