Jennifer A. Watts’ 2008 Photography Book, ‘This Side of Paradise: Body and Landscape in Los Angeles Photographs’ in Original Its Shrink Wrap Packaging.
This tome is a fascinating exploration of the dynamic relationship between the city and the art of photography from the mid-nineteenth century to the early 21st century. In contrast to traditional chronological studies, this beautifully illustrated volume takes a unique and highly revealing thematic approach to the subject, focusing on landscape and the body. Featuring more than 170 photographs by a wide variety of image-makers, This Side of Paradise casts new light on both Los Angeles and the photographic practices within it.

Watts is formerly the Curator of Photography and Visual Culture at The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California where she oversaw a collection of approximately one million images. She curates exhibitions and writes publications about historic and contemporary photography related to California and the American West, the American Civil War, mid-century architecture, and other topics concerning art, books, libraries, and racial justice. She is a passionate Californian and lover of all things Los Angeles.
