Flick then combines these color images in grids, one image visually tied to the next, as our eyes move along the route. The result is a remarkable documentation of a neighborhood and a seemingly endless amount of information to contemplate. This work is part of a long term project that deals with the extended visual documentation of Los Angeles where I trace routes through the Southern California cityscape in an effort to make visible what the singular frame does not. Born in Holland, Flick received a B.A. at the University of British Columbia and an M.F.A. at the University of California, Los Angeles. He has been exhibiting his photographs for over 30 years and has shown at almost every West Coast museum and many others around the world.
Flick is one of Southern California s most highly-recognized photographers.
He was a Getty Scholar at the Getty Center for the History of Art and the Humanities during 1996-7.
