“Southern California sunsets, neon, flowers, ocean, desert landscapes, and wide boulevards sifted their ways into the subconsciousnesses (or consciousnesses) of L.A. artists.”
Peter Plagens, Sunshine Muse; Contemporary Art on the West Coast

“For once in California there was an integration of art with avant-garde literature and music.”
Peter Plagens, Sunshine Muse; Contemporary Art on the West Coast

“If you believe in Modern Art History . . . it follows that the best breeding ground for good art is where competing ideas, esthetics, and artists are thickest and where regional niceties are thinnest — New York. . . . The 'regions'. . . . are short on white-hot overpopulation, edifice complexes, and career fights to the death. . . . Should it be gauged against the 'mainstream' . . . or should it be sized up from exactly the opposite point of view?”
Peter Plagens, Sunshine Muse; Contemporary Art on the West Coast
