ACHSE Fotograf und Autor Tim Maxeiner (siehe Bild der Woche links) wird heute im Kult-Magazin LA-Weekly mit seiner am Samstag beginnenden Ausstellung “Second Thougths San Pedro” vorgestellt.
“...The savviest newcomers are attempting not to colonize but to connect: to tap Pedro’s unique cultural identity and respectfully move it forward.
Deference to history is the guiding principle of “Second Thoughts San Pedro,” the exhibit opening Jan. 11 at Cornelius Projects. German photographer Tim Maxeiner spent months unearthing photographic treasures from the San Pedro Historical Society’s archives. He hangs them on the walls at Cornelius alongside shots taken during the last few years he has spent in the area, seeing the iconography of this American life with the fresh eyes of an outsider. A vintage black-and-white image of the entrance to the now-defunct auto ferry stands next to a recent color shot of a pedestrian bridge arching over the Harbor Freeway on-ramp. Cabrillo Beach then is dotted with tents and umbrellas; now it’s dotted with roaring bonfires. Die ganze Story hier.
