September 27, 2012 – The exhibit of large photographs of Marina City residences and residents will be in Los Angeles next month. Inside Marina City is showing at Woodbury University’s WUHO Gallery on Hollywood Boulevard’s iconic Walk of Fame October 4-28.

The photos, according to promotional literature from Woodbury’s School of Architecture, “read like case studies that explore relationships between [Marina City architect Bertrand] Goldberg’s rigorous modular framework for the apartment units and the gradual, informal development of interiors by their inhabitants.”

Architect Iker Gil, who lives at Marina City, and photographer Andreas Larsson, who recently moved to Los Angeles, worked on the project for two years starting in June 2009.
