The images from the cell phone have evolved, the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art has nearly 3 dozen photographers showing images taken with their cell phones. These promise not to be “instagrams” but rather documentation in an a sometimes digitally manipulated view of the world around us.
Mobile Pixels will run from April 12-May 5th 2012. The show’s opening reception will coincide with the Downtown Art Walk on Thursday April 12 from 7-9PM.
Parking is brutal Downtown on Art Walk nights so I would arrive early if you must drive. Public transportation is a better option given the lack of parking and traffic in the area, do yourself a favor and use the Red or Purple line to get yourself to Pershing Squares Metro station and walk the 4 blocks to this marvy show at LACDA.
Details: Opening Reception April 12 7-9PM. Los Angeles Center for Digital Art, 102 W 5th Street, Los Angeles CA 90013. MAP HERE.
In association with MOPLA, Los Angeles Times Photo and Video is presenting a special, one-night-only pop-up gallery during Downtown Art Walk from 6pm-10pm. The exhibit will celebrate the power and explore the craft of visual storytelling through a curated collection of recent work from Times photojournalists. The multimedia-savvy crew will also give a nod to its history with a chronological array of images, spanning from the present back through the decades. Join Los Angeles Times’ award-winning staff for this ephemeral event and block party, outside The Times iconic building on the corner of 2nd & Spring. Sounds by Big Sonic Heaven’s Darren Revell.

I can’t tell you how excited I am that SoCal author and Kodachrome enthusiast
