Summary
"This comprehensive, richly illustrated book explores postwar American art from a new perspective: Southern California. Grounded in more than a decade of research, Pacific Standard Time analyzes L.A.'s art scene from the end of World War II to the beginning of the 1980s, demonstrating the pioneering role Southern California artists played in the twentieth century's most influential art movements."--Page 4 of cover
