Photograph was edited for publication purposes The Lytton Center of the Visual Arts was located at 8150 Sunset Boulevard, within the Lytton Savings and Loan Association building, formerly the site of the Garden of Allah Hotel. Considered as one of the earliest corporate art programs in the United States, the Lytton Center actively promoted and exhibited the works of emerging California artists and housed the pre-cinema collection of Lytton Savings and Loan president, Bart Lytton. The center was closed in 1969 after the merger or Equitable, Lytton, and Mission Savings. Photograph article partially reads, "A new sculpture art from created by stained glass expert Roger Darricarrere for the center will weave a hypnotic effect with its constantly shifting patterns of colored light on a curved wall. Much of the fresh intellectual approach obvious in the center is embodied in its curator. Mrs. Josine Ianco Kline loves her work, and the exhibits show it." The Lytton Center was located at 8150 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles.; See images #00118994 through #00118997 for all photos in this series published in the Valley Times TODAY weekend section June 20-23, 1963.
