PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS: EXHIBITS

Between Oregon and Mexico
The California Coastal Records Project

In the CLUI Los Angeles Exhibit Hall, June-September, 2003

"Ken and Gabrielle Adelman's California Coastal Records Project is a sequential photographic portrait of the coast of California, composed of over 11,000 aerial photographs. Shown as a digital projection at the CLUI, with each image displayed for three seconds, the portrait takes 9 hours, 51 minutes and fifteen seconds to complete.

The low altitude, high resolution, oblique images were recorded digitally in 2002 and 2003 by Ken Aldeman, from a helicopter flown by his wife, Gabrielle. Additional information on the California Coastal Records Project is also on display."

The exhibit ran continuously, and was visible during normal public hours of noon to five PM, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Special showings of the complete portrait are scheduled by appointment, during which refreshments were available.
