Join the California Historical Society in welcoming writer Philip Fradkin and photographer Alex Fradkin, the father-and-son team behind the new book The Left Coast: California On The Edge.In this book, the author and his photographer son Alex Fradkin revisit some of the same places they explored together in the early 1970s. Mixing history, geography, interviews, and personal experiences, they present a realistic portrait of a dramatic coastline within the context of their close relationship. In this way, the book becomes the story of a relationship as well as a probing study of a varied and contested coastline.
This program takes place at the CHS Museum, and complements the current exhibition A Century of Landscapes: Selections from the California Art Club, an exhibition of artwork by members of the California Art Club celebrating the club’s one hundred year legacy. The exhibition is supplemented by pieces of art and other materials from the rich collections of the California Historical Society.
