BRITTIN, CHARLES - HOPPS, WALTER - Charles Brittin

Santa Monica, Smart Art Press. 1999, First Edition. Soft Cover. Fine. Text: English. 86 p.; b/w photographs; 21 x 28 cm. Exhibition catalogue. Charles Brittin took photographs of his friends, the underground artists and poets in Los Angeles during the 50’s/60’s. Fortunately, he captured the scene; otherwise, there would be almost no visual record of it. He didn’t take snap shots. All are beautifully composed and outstanding photographs of individuals who influenced his life and creativity. Brittin also became involved in the civil rights movement and had his camera ready to document the brutality he experienced while marching with demonstrators. In 1999 there was a retrospect of these photographs as well as those he took of his 50s companions at the Craig Krull Gallery in Santa Monica. This gallery published an excellent book of his work from that show. Over the years he has continued in his chosen field of photography and has been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the world. Now his photographs are in the archives at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Fine. (ISBN: 1889195286)
