Saturday 9/27: Lauri Gaffin Moving Still at Arcana!!!
Please join us Saturday, September 27th, between 4:00 and 6:00 PM as we welcome Los Angeles's own Lauri Gaffin to celebrate the release of her new Damiani publication, Moving Still: A Cinematic Life Frame-By-Frame!
Moving Still... is a personal portrait of filmmaking from set decorator Lauri Gaffin. With four decades of experience, Gaffin intertwines stunning behind-the-scenes photographs and intimate narrative to provide a rare glimpse into the fascinating world of cinema. The book highlights life on set for indie gems 'Fargo’ and ‘The Pursuit of Happyness’ as well as blockbuster hits such as ‘Charlie’s Angels’, ‘Iron Man’ and ‘Thor’.
Through her photographs and engaging anecdotes, Gaffin unveils the collaborative spirit that binds directors, actors, production designers and crew members together. The contrast of her thriving career and her complex emotional life are a throughline in the book. Gaffin's photography remains a steadfast beacon of inspiration even as she navigates the demands of production - deadlines, budgets and politics - and her family’s escalating turmoil.
So be here at Arcana next Saturday to meet and greet Lauri and pick up her fabulous new book! If you cannot attend and would like to purchase a signed copy of Moving Still: A Cinematic Life Frame-By-Frame, please place your order here!
