Art Deco Los Angeles is a stunning photographic tour through one of the most glamorous architectural eras of the City of Angels. From the iconic Hollywood Bowl, where the world’s biggest acts dazzle under the evening sky, to the majestic Wiltern Theater, a timeless beacon of architectural grandeur, each image encapsulates the essence of Art Deco style and panache. Featuring photographs from more than 40 years of Robert Landau’s extensive body of work, Art Deco Los Angeles features architectural treasures that have been meticulously preserved, like the Eastern Columbia building, and those that are no longer standing, such as the iconic Pan-Pacific Auditorium, which tragically burned in 1989. With meticulous attention to detail and an artist’s eye for composition, Landau captures the energy, elegance, and optimism of a golden age, inviting readers to experience the magic of Art Deco like never before. Accompanying these striking visuals is an illuminating essay by Alan Hess, Los Angeles’s premier architectural historian, whose expert insights provide a deeper appreciation of the city’s Art Deco treasures. A must-have for lovers of architecture, photography, and design, Art Deco Los Angeles is a celebration of a century of style, innovation, and timeless beauty.
