SUMMARY:Book Signing with Andrew MacPherson
DESCRIPTION:Please join Arcana: Books on the Arts on Saturday\, May 23rd between 4:00 and 6:00 PM as they host a book signing with Andrew MacPherson to celebrate his exquisite new volume of floral images from the West\, Synchronicity. Come and meet the iconic fashion and celebrity photographer and snap up a perfect gift for Mother’s Day. If you cannot attend and would like to purchase a signed copy\, please place your order here. \n\nOver the last thirty years living in Los Angeles\, noted fashion and celebrity photographer Andrew MacPherson marveled at the flora and fauna that thrive and survive in our harsh\, often drought-stricken climate. \n“However\, it wasn’t until embarking on this project in earnest that I really began to appreciate them. What began as a daily diary of the flowers seen on hikes soon morphed into a celebration of the beauty of all the flowers I’d see on my travels across the Southwest. As I discovered more and more flora and fauna\, the idea germinated that these pictures should become a book to share their fabulous fleeting beauty. Arranged loosely by color\, these pages are bookended by purple flowers as it’s the predominant color of the flora across the Southwest. This book was never meant to be a complete catalog of cultivars\, it is an invitation to walk with me amongst the glorious flowers of the American Southwest. While Los Angeles is famous for its glitz\, glamour\, and sunshine\, its mild Mediterranean climate is also home to a stunning array of both native wildflowers and cultivated imports. Some ephemerals blossom for just a day or two every few years\, while others blanket vast swaths of the hills\, mountains\, and deserts for weeks at a time. Many ornamental cultivars have jumped their garden fences to spread out along the roadsides and hills\, some have even penetrated deep into the wilderness. Most pose no threat to the indigenous plants\, but several have become destructively invasive. In a city of migrants that was all wild open land not that long ago\, their spread seems to mirror our own.” – Andrew MacPherson \n\nUpcoming Arcana Events \nSaturday\, May 30th\, 4:00 – 6:00 pm\nBruce W.
