"Art's a Trip" Red Line Metro Rail Tour (Part 1)

"Art's a Trip" Red Line Metro Rail Tour (Part 1) by Tales of an LA Addict.
Hollywood/Highland Station

2000
Sheila Klein, artist
Dworsky Associates, architects

The concrete station box has been transformed by this team into a telescoping, organic form where rhythmic breaks in the walls and ceiling panels reveal structural supports; in much the same way, movie or theater production stage sets, or the nearby Hollywood sign, are facades held in place.

Sculptural forms are attached like organisms to the platform columns and boldly illuminate the station’s cavity. One has the sense of being in the depths of a giant creature.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called apex, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group. Membership not required but encouraged to share your 10 personal best with the group. The structure of this image and the play of geometric forms is captivating. A fave..
