Los Angeles through the lenses of more than 130 photographers — from Bruce Davidson and Garry Winogrand to Ed Templeton and Katy Grannan. Edited by Jane Brown and Marla Hamburg Kennedy, with text by David Ulin and Ed Ruscha, this collection captures the city's defining dualities: sunshine and noir, myth and reality, beauty and sprawl.

Spanning generations and perspectives, the images collectively form a portrait of a place where myth and reality are often indistinguishable — unromantic, expansive, and entirely alive. An evolution of the acclaimed Looking at Los Angeles (Metropolis Books, 2005), updated to reflect a city whose artistic landscape has only continued to flourish. Proceeds benefit Inner-City Arts, bringing arts education to students in the heart of Los Angeles.
