We’re pretty lucky here in Los Angeles to have a beautiful space dedicated to photography, complete with diverse imagery, mainly focusing on the human condition.
Annenberg Space for Photography
For almost 2 years we have watched this photographic jewel in this city continue to get polished.
Many promises were made, and community engagement projects have been on the the books since the inception.

One of the favorite parts for us, have been the free lecture series. For each exhibit the curators have lined up the people behind the images, to come and speak to mostly packed houses. Sharing the back stories of the assignments, experiences and thinking, the local community has been able to hear from the photographers AND editors, who share their passion from a small podium.

The honest truth is, as much as we love attending these, sometimes it’s just not possible with conflicting events, work, and well, life.

Now, they have posted something we’ve been waiting for: The videos of the lectures, shot in high quality, 2 camera mode. Click this link link and check out the cornucopia of material.

For those of our readers who are based around the world, this is huge news.

And for those of us who were thoroughly bummed that the timing didn’t work to be there in person, relief.

Some things take time, and this is one archive well worth the wait.
