Rock 'n' Roll Billboards of the Sunset Strip Exhibit Opens at West Hollywood Library

An exhibition featuring photos from West Hollywood photographer Robert Landau’s book Rock ‘n’ Roll Billboards of the Sunset Strip (Angel City Press) will be held at 5 p.m. on Saturday, August 10 at the West Hollywood Library, 625 San Vicente Blvd. in between Santa Monica and Melrose in West Hollywood.

The exhibit will be on view through mid-October during regular library operating hours. Landau will also sign books on Saturday, Aug. 3 at the Sunset Strip Music Festival.

Landau, who grew up on the Strip, rediscovered decades-old “Kodachrome” photos of rock ‘n’ roll billboards he shot during the 1960s. In his book, he interviews the artists, record producers and designers who shaped the billboards during a thriving Strip music scene.
