CURRENTLY : In Focus: The Sky @ The Getty

Untitled (Zuma Series), John Divola, 1977–78

In the fall of 1977, after discovering an abandoned lifeguard headquarters at Zuma Beach, California, John Divola began visiting the site to photograph. Painting the walls, incorporating props, using flash, and depending on the Pacific Ocean and the sky for a dramatic backdrop, he created a series of makeshift scenes.


Currently on exhibit at The Getty is "In Focus : The Sky" until Dec. 4, 2011
