Documenting and preserving the stories of artists, architects, curators, critics, dealers, and collectors, oral histories offer a first-hand account of the making and meaning of visual art. The Getty Research Institute holds over 1,000 oral history videos, audio recordings, and transcripts, each of which captures the voices of those who shaped the artistic landscape of the 20th and early 21st centuries.
The selected oral histories in this playlist highlight artists of Los Angeles's vibrant postwar (1945–1980) art scene, and include interviews, group panels, and symposia discussing their contributions.
