Description
Original photograph prints, primarily covering the people and surroundings of Los Angeles, California. Also digital images relating to the Sixth Street Viaduct Replacement Project.
Background
Long-time photographer Gary Leonard documented the local punk music scene in the 1970s and 80s. For the last 30 years he has documented the city, from people on the streets to civic and private events, to the changing built environment. He extensively documented the Disney Hall construction from the groundbreaking in 1992 until its opening in 2003. The result was the publication by Angel City Press of his photo essay, Symphony in Steel, in 2003. He is known for his long-running photo-series "Take my picture, Gary Leonard."
