by Michele Dugan, Marnie Tenden and Hannah Kaufman

Because there can never be too many Angels in the streets of Los Angeles, Angel City Press is proud announce the publication of the follow-up to last year’s BESTSELLING Angel book: A COMMUNITY OF ANGELS: Los ANGELes. Due to overwhelming public affection and demand, we’ve made the new book bigger–and if it’s possible–even more beautiful.

With fabulous photographs by Michele Dugan, text by Marnie Tenden and graphic design by Hannah Kaufman, A COMMUNITY OF ANGELS: LOS ANGELES 2002 captures the vitality, innovation and diversity of the city’s largest public art project. A COMMUNITY OF ANGELS: LOS ANGELES 2002 translates the excitement of this on-the-street art extravaganza to the printed page, and provides a fascinating insight into the inspiration of its participants. Statements from the artists and their sponsors reveal the inner-workings of the artistic process, as the book’s photographs showcase the tremendous talent that make these awe-inspiring works. Throughout the book, these creators express their wonder at the experience, which can only be described by most as "heavenly."

Proceeds from the publication of this book will benefit Volunteers of America to support vital Los Angeles youth programs. A Community of Angels is a project presented in association with the Los Angeles Convention and Visitors Bureau, Los Angeles County Fair and NBC4.
