    OUT OF SIGHT: THE LOS ANGELES ART SCENE OF THE SIXTIES - SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR

    Hackman, William. New York: Other Press, 2015. First Edition. 8vo. Cloth in Pictorial Dust Jacket. Art Monograph. As New/As New. 320pp, illustrated in b&w. "The history of modern art typically begins in Paris and ends in New York. Los Angeles was out of sight and out of mind, viewed as the apotheosis of popular culture, not a center for serious art. William Hackman's "Out of Sight..." chronicles the rapid-fire rise, fall, and rebirth of L.A.’s art scene, from the emergence of a small bohemian community in the 1950s to the founding of the Museum of Contemporary Art in 1980. Included are some of the most influential artists and institutions of our time including John Altoon, Billy Al Bengston, Vija Celmins, Judy Chicago, Richard Diebenkorn, Llyn Foulkes, David Hockney, Dennis Hopper, Robert Irwin, Craig Kauffman, Ed Kienholz, Ed Moses, Ken Price, Ed Ruscha, the Ferus Gallery, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Artforum magazine, and many others. A book about the city as much as it is about the art, "Out of Sight..." is a social and cultural history that illuminates the ways mid-century Los Angeles shaped its emerging art scene, and how that art scene helped remake the city". A brand new, most handsome example of this thoroughly researched and well written history of Los Angeles' Art scene of the 1960s additionally SIGNED "William Hackman" in ink on the title page. 1-59051-411-4 Inventory Number: 026308
