Palm Springs revamps trailer park with mid-century tiny homes
Built in the 1940s, the Palm Canyon Mobile Club was showing its age when the owners approached realtor Paul Kaplan about helping to sell new homes in the park. Kaplan suggested a fresh start:investing in tiny homes instead of traditional mobile homes.
Rather than partnering with a prefab designer or tiny home architect, they chose to work with a traditional mobile home manufacturer because of the scale of the project (100 homes).
Working with manufactured home builder Silvercrest, they pushed for a modern, Midcentury-inspired design more fitting of Palm Springs and avoiding some of the hallmark details of conventional mobile homes like ceiling moldings and six-panel doors.
There's also a stigma against mobile home parks, explains Kaplan. You know the whole trailer trash kind of thing, and I think people are re-looking at it and seeing it really provides a nice sense of community. The Palm Canyon Mobile Club has a renovated pool and clubhouse with workout room and community kitchen. The houses start at $115,000 for the 600 square foot model, with a $650 monthly rental fee for the site.

The Heritage of Lillian Nassau LLC
The historic Lillian Nassau gallery, established in 1945 in New York City, is world-renowned for its expertise in the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany and Tiffany Studios.
Established almost 75 years ago by Lillian Nassau, the gallery was among the first to handle works in blown and leaded glass by Louis C. Tiffany, son of the founder of Tiffany & Company. Louis Comfort Tiffany's work had fallen out of favor in the 1930s and 40s after his company, Tiffany Studios, closed following his death in 1933. Mrs. Nassau recognized that Tiffany was an unsung hero of American design and quickly began to build up an inventory of rare and exceptional works. By supporting early scholarship, lending to the first museum exhibitions, and placing key examples of Tiffany glass in important private and public collections around the world, the gallery quickly established a reputation as the foremost destination for those looking to acquire the quality original Tiffany Studios lamps, windows, Favrile glass and pottery, Favrile glass mosaics, and more.
Current owner Arlie Sulka, who was hand-picked by Mrs. Nassau to join the gallery in 1980, continues to dominate the field with her expertise and scholarship in Tiffany Studios. Adding to Lillian Nassau's specialization is Gallery Director Eric Silver, who is well-known for his expertise in American sculpture and Art Nouveau decorative arts. Both Arlie Sulka and Eric Silver have appeared as regular appraisers on the hit PBS series Antiques Roadshow since it first aired in the United States over two decades ago.

Brit Flag Off-Road California Mountains Randsburg Mojave Desert Ghost Town 0014
Off-Road String of Videos (Playlist) California Mojave Desert Mountains by Randsburg Thanksgiving 2015
Photos at
Old West Desert Mountain Town at 3,600 feet (1,104 meters) above sea level (in southern California when as many as 2,000 to 10,000 to 20,000 people camp out in cottages and circle up in RV Round-Ups stretching for thirty miles from Randsburg to Johannesburg along US 395 south to California City, east of Mojave, 2-1/2 hours east of a totally different culture in Los Angeles. Off Roaders, Dirt Bikers and 4 Wheelers, love the basin and range with salt flats and endless twist and turn in the higher elevations of sagebrush hills and desert mountains in the warm southern California chaparral.
On the high end of Main Street in the Living Ghost Town of Randsburg only local artists show in the Randsburg Art Gallery. Randsburg resident population is not 70, not 50, but recently down to 48 people in the heart of this mountain side enclave of Bohemians living on the cool north slope.
Great views extend over mountain ranges Rand, El Paso and southern end of the Sierras to the northwest layering fifty miles deep into the Sierras at the far north of the Owens Valley greatly valued by many Wild West Hollywood movie directors including backgrounds for John Wayne films.
From the wide balcony of the Cottage Hotel at the high end of town, the northeast view looks over the tops of three mountain ranges advancing into lost desert basin and range, layering in greys from light to dark hiding mysteries of pioneers and prospectors of the Audacious Generation struggling against the Wild West impelled by burning visions inspired by travel guides and drawings of the 1850s overland journals telling wild stories of the greatest migration of people in the history of the world. Some of them pared off on the dry eastern drainage of the Sierras. People such as Seldom Seen Slim and desert homesteaders like the prior generations of Scrappy, manager of the Cottage Hotel, happy to be in the area all her life.
Antique phosphate sodas are thankfully not as sweet as many soda pops today.
In the Randsburg Art Gallery a hand painted map of southern California high desert depicts the highest elevation in the continental USA - Mount Whitney 14,495 feet above sea level in the Sequoia National Forest in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains and a moderate distance to the east-southeast the lowest point in the United States - Death Valley at 282 feet BELOW sea level, too hot and too dry in the summer. In between are military reservations of Fort Irwin desert warfare and armored tank training center, China Lake Naval Weapons Center and Edwards Air Force Base. The map is a fresco 10 foot square. Off map to the northeast in southern Nevada is Nellis Bombing and Gunnery Range and off map to the south is experimental military aircraft development center - Skunk Works, famous since the 1950s with the X-1 to Right Stuff coming together in the X-15.
First Bank of Randsburg was open for six months then failed. Randall Hoot Smith is now the pleasant owner.
Erma Maw - Choctaw Indian Artist.
Scene from Darwin, mining ghost town in southern California. Artist uses as many as thirty layers of paint, many layers use translucent paint.
Randsburg centrally located for hiking in the Sierras of southern Tulare County and eastern Kern County, and also other marvels of the Mojave Desert in southern Inyo County.
Randsburg is about 1200 feet (368 meters) above the much hotter desert floor, hence it is good for overnight stays before heading to Death Valley National Monument or other areas in the Mojave Desert. Only three hours from Los Angeles, Randsburg is also due east of the southern tip of the Sierra.
S6 E3: Steel Modern
This episode of Artbound, Steel Modern explores the architectural past and present in Southern California. The episode features Danny Heller's paintings of mid-century modern architecture in Palm Springs, the superadobe construction techniques of Cal-Earth whose experimental designs are challenging the ubiquitous cookie-cutter suburban communities in the urbanized southwestern Mojave Desert, and Jackrabbit Homesteads and the cultural legacy of the Small Tract Act in Southern California's Morongo Basin. We then visit the iconic pre-fabricated modular Steel Development houses by architects Wexler & Harrison in Palm Springs and head to Watts to see the preservation efforts to maintain the historic Watts Towers built by Simon Rodia. The episode wraps up with a musical performance by multi-Grammy award winning producer Daniel Lanois.

CALIFORNIA PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION SAN DIEGO NEWSREEL 1935 89664
This vintage silent newsreel shows the California Pacific International Exposition held in San Diego, California during May 29, 1935–November 11, 1935 and February 12, 1936–September 9, 1936. The exposition was held in Balboa Park, San Diego's large central urban park, which had also been the site of the earlier Panama-California Exposition in 1915.
The Exposition was held to promote San Diego and support its economy, which had slowed with the country's Great Depression. The first year was such a financial and attendance success that it was held over for a second year. The exposition had hundreds of exhibits on history, the arts, horticulture, ethnic cultures, science, and industry. Some concessions and exhibits were unusual, such as the Gold Gulch, Lost Continent of Mu, Zoro Garden Nudist Colony, and the One Ton Mechanical Man.
The buildings from the 1915 fair were in Spanish Colonial Revival Style architecture, designed by Bertram Goodhue and Carleton Winslow. Architect Richard Requa designed the new permanent buildings to be added for the 1935 fair. He wrote that his goal was to relate pre-Columbian Indian buildings and temples, like those found in the Southwest and Mexico, to the modern era; his model was the 1915 New Mexico Building, which he remodeled into a Palace of Education. Many of the new large buildings were in this style, including the California State Building (now the San Diego Automotive Museum), Palace of Electricity (now a gymnasium), and Palace of Water and Transportation (no longer existent).
Other new buildings included:
The Old Globe Theatre, a copy of a theatre built for the Chicago fair, which in turn was a copy of the original Globe Theatre in London. During the Exposition it showed 50-minute adaptations of plays by William Shakespeare. After the fair it was remodeled and roofed over, and continued to show theatrical productions. The building burned down in 1978 but was rebuilt and is now the focus of a three-theater complex.
The circular Ford Building, generally regarded as the architectural wonder of the Exposition, now the home of the San Diego Air and Space Museum.
The Ford Bowl, now called the Starlight Bowl, an amphitheater used for concerts and theatrical productions.
The House of Pacific Relations, a collection of fifteen small tan red-tiled cottages which were dedicated to different foreign countries; these International Cottages are still in use by a consortium of groups from 32 countries as a focus of educational activities, outreach, and international festivals.
Spanish Village, a group of six buildings used for shops, restaurants, and a children's theater; it is now an Art Center featuring 37 working art studios and galleries.
While some of the extensive gardens from the 1915 Panama California Exposition remained, they were redesigned from formal gardens to gardens overflowing with lush abundance of exotic plants. Many were reimagined by renowned architect Richard Requa who was influenced by the gardens he had seen traveling in Spain. Today's Alcazar garden, Zoro Garden, and the garden at Cafe del Rey Moro are all Requa designs.

42 Ep 42 the artists you meet Klari Reis John Taylor Todd Carpenter Andy Burgess James Panozzo
COLLIDING WORLDS, an ART DOCUMENTARY in a 30-minute format, brings The Artists You Meet -- Klari Reis, John Taylor, Todd Carpenter, Andy Burgess and James Panozzo of LAUNCH LA.
Kari Reis is a Colorist working in a medium not reserved for art but for floors. Working in epoxy polymer, similar to resin, the UV resistant plastic is her method of expressing interactions of art and science on a microscopic level.
Currently working in San Francisco, home to a large concentration of bio-tech companies Klari's artwork finds its inspiration. Using cells as her basis, Klari creates works of brightly colored smears, bumps, stains and blobs atop aluminum and wood planes. She pigments the plastic with powders, oils, acrylics and industrial dyes through many layers of the ultra glossy plastic. Klari has turned the invented process into a science in the service of art.
Todd Carpenter uses only blacks and whites with shades of gray to create detailed illusions of cities, landscapes and skies. Trained in neuroscience and psychobiology, Todd mixes his version of science and art. Meticulous is detail, stripped of all but black and white, his work forces the viewer to enter into world created by lines and dots. Todd's small-scale work is deeper in depth and larger in scale than one can ever imagine. Understanding how the brain reacts to sight, has given Todd a unique perspective that makes his work outstanding.
John Taylor's art may appear in the form of model ships, but it grows as much from Matthew Brady Civil War portraits, New England deciduous forests, and abandoned buildings in Midwestern expanses as it does from any formal aspects. Using cast-off materials John creates models of ocean vessels with the precision and detail of a master ship builder. The works are haunting, remarkable reminders of the glorious sailing vessels of a time gone by.
Mr. Taylor has produced over 250 pieces, and his work been featured in various museums around the country, including the Boise Museum of Art, the Henry Art Museum and the Oceanside Museum of Art.
Andy Burgess is a visual artist living in London and Tucson, Arizona. After earning a degree politics, Andy studied fine art at The Byam Shaw School. He has won a series of awards including Apthorp Fund for Young Artists, The Worshipful Company of Painters/Stainers and The New English Art Club School of Drawing Scholarship. In 2005 his painting of a Philadelphia street scene was selected for the prestigious Hunting Art Prize exhibition at The Royal College of Art.
Burgess's love of Pop Art and the incorporation of found vintage ephemera find its way into his collage work. Much of that work references a golden age of American graphic design and advertising. But it is Andy's painting of midcentury modern architectural buildings where his command of color, geometric elements, and the early Twentieth century modern movements combine. His painting do more than capture a structure, they capture the all the elements that allowed midcentury design to change the modern world.
James Panozzo created the non-profit social enterprise LAUNCH in 2010 to oversee the production of TarFest annually while also providing unique programming and exhibition opportunities to important artists in Los Angeles. James co-founded TarFest in 2003 and continues to develop and manage its programs that provide opportunities to emerging artists in the Miracle Mile District of Los Angeles. LAUNCH strives to engage a broad cross section in cultural events that foster mutual understanding and creative expression.
