Some Los Angeles Apartments

description

Artists' book that highly approximates artist's book by same title by Edward Ruscha. "Ed Ruscha's 1965 book 'Some Los Angeles Apartments' features photographs of apartment buildings in Los Angeles. Ruscha was inspired by the 'artless' photography featred in real estate listings. For my version, I visited the locations Ruscha had photographed and took photographs from the same vantage points. Most of the buildings still exist, some with cosmetic alterations, others remain virtually unchanged. The book's format mimics Ruscha's, but substitutes my photographs of the apartments." -- artist's statement.
