Description - Christopher Thomas: Lost in L.A. by Ira Stehmann
This photographic homage to Los Angeles presents a timeless depiction of the great city. In his book New York Sleeps, Christopher Thomas traveled the empty streets of New York City shooting dreamy cityscapes with a large-format Polaroid camera. For this new book he focuses his lens on Los Angeles, capturing in duotone images of the iconic buildings and spaces in the city: the Chinese Theatre without tourists, the Griffith Observatory peacefully alone, the Hollywood Boulevard without celebrities or onlookers. Around the city's art- deco buildings and mid-century drive-ins, sidewalks, and parking lots are vacant. Shot in the early morning, with the sun's rays just hinting between buildings, or at dusk, when the light is inchoate and mournful, these pictures are a tender valentine to Los Angeles. Fans of New York Sleeps will be thrilled to encounter another sublime project by Thomas. And residents and lovers of Los Angeles will be awestruck at this new interpretation of the City of Angels. AUTHORS: Christopher Thomas' photographs have appeared in numerous magazines and other publications. His best-selling book New York Sleeps was followed by Venice in Solitude and Paris: City of Light (all by Prestel). Ira Stehmann is a curator and photography expert based in Munich, Germany. 90 duotone illustrations
