"As a journal of record, the volume fills in innumerable lacunae.
The post-war New York art scene has dominated the text books for
far too long; this necessary resource redresses the balance with
authority, wit and academic rigour, convincing the reader that it
is indeed time for this history to be set down."--The Art
Newspaper
"The book is heavy on gorgeous reproductions of iconic L.A.
artwork, and, ambitious in scale and scope, represents a
significant effort and achievement."--Publishers Weekly
"As Pacific Standard Time amply documents, L.A. had its share of
epochal moments during the three and a half decades following the
end of World War II."--Peter Plagens, Los Angeles Review of
Books
"Consider [Pacific Standard Time] the missing general textbook on
the rise, fall and transformation of post-World War II art produced
in Los Angeles."--Christopher Knight, Los Angeles Times
"It is, to date, the most comprehensive effort to document L.A.'s
emergence as a major locus of important art creation and presents
an irresistibly rich panorama."--Library Journal, starred
review
"With informative, insightful chapters, this book is an excellent
addition to the developing history of 20th-century art in the U.S.
Highly recommended."--Choice
Glenn Goldman Award for Art and Architecture book, Los Angeles
Times, 2012
