Man, I love the folks of Tumblr! I didn’t know who the artist of this piece was (James Dean on the side of the Scooter Inventory Building in Downtown) — so I went and asked Hyde or Die, and her lovely followers answered it for me! This piece was done by David Flores.

Thanks to falltofall and Gregory Siff for answering my question, and to Hyde or Die for crowdsourcing it. (And for all the art-related stuff on my dash.) Seriously, if you guys don’t follow her already, you should be.

At Caña with the usual suspects.

April is the Month of Photography in Los Angeles, so we decided we wanted to have a little party with a one-evening-only, pop-up gallery experience. We’ve put together a curated collection of amazing photography by Times photojournalists in a fantastic and unconventional setting. Join us, meet the staff, talk photography, like us, blog about the event, bring lots of your friends. It’s something new for us that we really want to share with you. And it’s the same night as Downtown Art Walk, so let’s make an evening out of it.

Click here for more info, to win one of the photos featured at the event or to RSVP for an LA Times tour.

If you guys are headed to Art Walk next week, you should probably add this to your list! The gallery will be located at 2nd and Spring, and will be open from 6-10p. Don’t forget to RSVP for an LA Times tour while you’re at it!
