Los Angeles Documentary Project photograph collection
Visual Materials
A collection of 21 photographs and three promotional publications from the Los Angeles Documentary Project, a photographic survey of the city of Los Angeles in celebration of its bicentennial in 1981. Alan Jutzi and John Humble created the project for the Photography Museum, with financial assistance from the National Endowment for the Arts. The original project comprised 120 prints by eight photographers; these 21 prints are a sampling from the project and represent the work of six photographers: Joe Deal (1 print); Robbert Flick (6 prints, each containing a series of images); Douglas Hill (1 print); John Humble (2 prints); Bill Owens (9 prints, including self-portraits); and Susan Ressler (2 prints). Robbert Flick's photographs depict scenes in Marina del Rey, Venice Beach, Manhattan Beach, Los Angeles International Airport, and Centinela Park. The collection contains color photographs (some Cibachrome) and black-and-white photographs, and most are signed by the photographers. Works for the project were exhibited in Los Angeles at Mount Saint Mary's University, the Watts Towers Arts Center, and the San Pedro Art Gallery.
