LACMA

Ansel Adams was an american photographer from 1902 to 1984. He is very well known for his black and white photographs of Yosemite National Park. The tone in his work is very brilliant. He spent much time camping and hiking and loved nature.

It looks like the perfect spot for Valentine's Day. At least that's the idea in "No Strings Attached," the new Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman movie about a couple who denies being a couple until someone makes a startling/inevitable declaration of love.
The setting for this confession, familiar to many locals by now, is an artwork by Chris Burden called "Urban Light": some 200 vintage lampposts arranged to create a forest of lights that you can walk through on the campus of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art or drive by on Wilshire Boulevard.
