Los Angeles road concerts
The Los Angeles Road Concerts are annual exhibitions of site-specific performances, installations, readings, lectures, and carpool happenings along streets in Los Angeles. Past events took place along San Fernando Road, Washington Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard, with works by over 200 artists.[1] Los Angeles Road Concerts seeks to investigate the possibilities of LA's lengthy streets as sites for artistic exploration while celebrating each street itself as a cross-section to observe the city's diversity of landscapes and people, how the Los Angeles metropolis grew, and the assortment of in-betweens and negative spaces it left behind as it expanded.[2] The next event, on Mulholland Drive, scheduled for December 9, 2012, is accepting submissions until December 1.[1]
