As the entertainment capitol of the world, Los Angeles has captured the imagination of millions and lured thousands more with the promise of fame and fortune. But there is another Los Angeles – a city of dashed hopes and broken dreams overshadowed by the klieg lights of Hollywood. It is the city of Raymond Chandler, Alfred Hitchcock, Orson Wells and other iconoclasts who saw a place infinitely more complex than a collection of studio sets, tinsel, and glitter.
Acclaimed photographer Jim McHugh has artfully recorded this now faded Los Angeles in Let’s Get Lost – a traveling photographic exhibit of beautiful photographic prints that evoke the heady days of the 1930s and 1940s. The Deco- Moderne apartment buildings and hotels, studios and historic landmarks that all make up Let’s Get Lost tell of those who came with dreams of stardom and fame; sometimes achieved often not. The fading glamour of these architectural dowagers recalls a vanished moment in time when Hollywood’s stars were larger-than-life.
