Event Details
Join us for photography exhibit Lonely LA:
Los Angeles Unveiled During the Early Months of COVID on view at Peninsula
Center Library from September 23-October 19, 2023.
Lonely LA is a poignant exploration of human resilience, isolation, and the hidden stories that unfolded within the lonely streets of Los Angeles during the early days of the pandemic. Photographer Jerry Fleury's unique ability to capture raw emotions and unseen narratives through his lens and complementary poetry transcends traditional artistic boundaries, creating an exhibition that will resonate deeply with visitors. The images in the exhibition were captured between March 27, 2020, to March 29, 2020. This ambitious exhibition brings 34 black and white images complimented by 34 poems in the form of a photo essay. The artist aims to capture the mood of DTLA at the start of the lockdown, a task for which he argues photography and poetry is uniquely suited.
