Oral history interviews with artists, filmmakers, curators, collectors, and critics, 2008-2011.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/757151004

The collection primarily comprises oral history interviews conducted from 2008 through 2010 as part of Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A., a research project that focuses on postwar art (1945-1980) in Los Angeles. The project was initiated by the Getty in collaboration with arts institutions across Southern California. Project organizers conducted an extensive series of oral histories with many of Los Angeles' key artists, filmmakers, curators, collectors, and critics. Many of the participating organizations were awarded funds by the Getty Foundation, which received the resulting interviews as part of the grant requirement. The recordings and transcripts exist solely in digital format, and are available online, when rights permit. Material also includes printed ephemera (brochures, press kits, press releases, and other types of announcements) created in 2011 by participating organizations.
