Between Earth and Heaven: The Architecture of John Lautner

July 13, 2008 - October 12, 2008
Hammer Museum UCLA, 10899 Wilshire Blvd at Westwood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90024, 310.443.7000, United States

This exhibition will be the first large-scale museum exhibition devoted to this innovative, yet underappreciated, American architect. Over the course of a career spent largely in Los Angeles, John Lautner (1911–1994) captured the essence of Southern California in more than 150 distinctive structures. Trained by Frank Lloyd Wright, Lautner is best known for such private homes as the Elrod Residence in Palm Springs, featured in the James Bond movie Diamonds Are Forever, and Los Angeles’s iconic “Chemosphere.”
