  2. Maurice Merlin paintings and prints on display at Huntington Library

    We've heard lately that America is trying to rise up from "the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression." While economists, political scientists and historians will debate that point, an exhibition of paintings and prints by Maurice Merlin at the Huntington Library's Scott Gallery provides a yardstick against which to measure our present stagnation.

  3. Emotional 'Lore' tells the story of a daughter of Nazis forced to watch after her siblings

    Australian director Cate Shortland recalls the emotional moment when her film "Lore" was presented at the London Film Festival in October.

  5. Author of book on man who created Philip Marlowe to speak at Huntington Library

    One of the best-received Los Angeles-themed books of 2007 was Judith Freeman’s “The Long Embrace: Raymond Chandler and the Woman He Loved” (Farrar, Straus and Giroux). Philip Marlowe, Chandler’s fictional private detective, has captured the imagination of generations of readers, and few writers ever captured the essence of the city so deftly as Chandler.

  6. Less is more at PMCA design exhibit

    If you caught LACMA's great California design retrospective last year, “Living in a Modern Way,” you came away with the idea that Southern California was the tip of the post-World War II modernist spear. Along with the familiar names of architects Richard Neutra and Rudolph Schindler, and designers Charles and Ray Eames, the largely forgotten Greta Magnusson Grossman's inclusion offered the chance of a rediscovery.
