The Norton Simon Museum presents Proof: The Rise of Printmaking in Southern California, an exhibition that explores the significance of printmaking and its new possibilities in Southern California in the middle of the 20th century. The exhibition includes approximately 150 prints, portfolios and multiples, including works by the local founders of the movement, such as John Altoon, Richard Diebenkorn, Sam Francis, Ken Price, Ed Ruscha and June Wayne. Proof also includes work by artists who traveled west to print specifically in Los Angeles, such as Louise Nevelson and Robert Rauschenberg. Proof is part of Pacific Standard Time, an unprecedented collaboration of more than sixty cultural institutions across Southern California, coming together to tell the story of the birth of the LA art scene.
