The photo LA Annual International Art Exposition 2015 will take place from Friday, January 16, through Sunday, January 18, at The REEF/LA Mart in downtown Los Angeles. Now in its 24th year, photo LA brings together leading galleries, museums, universities, and nonprofit organizations for an unparalleled showcase of photographic art from around the world, from 19th Century masterpieces to contemporary, cutting-edge photography-based work. As in previous years, photo LA will include a diverse range of programming, including panel discussions, educational workshops, and curated installations that foster an ongoing dialogue about the changing landscape of photography and its role in the art world at large.
“Stephen Cohen founded photo LA in 1992 to unite and support the international community of experts, enthusiasts, collectors, and artists who share a love of photography,” says Claudia James Bartlett, director of photo LA. “And our unique combination of gallery installations, curated exhibits, and programming support this mission.”
On Thursday, January 15, photo LA will launch with its annual Opening Gala. This year, the Gala will honor Catherine Opie, one of America’s preeminent documentarians, and her lifelong contributions to the arts. Additionally, photo LA will feature an installation of Opie’s work, which will be on display for the entirety of the weekend.
