children’s court, los angeles central library
when the tom bradley wing was added to the los angeles central library, the entrance to what was the children’s department was moved to become the entrance to the mark taper auditorium, and the children’s court was was also relocated, including the sculptures by lee lawrie. it is generally closed to the public now, but i was able to get in while observing a tour and grabbed snapshots of all of the panel carvings and the lotus shaft fountain. the fountain isn’t actually functioning — i’m not even sure if it is hooked up to anything now.

I am developing www.LeeLawrie.com and would like to aggregate images of his work. Take a look at my website, www.bisonwerks.com Also, am on the verge of publishing my book on his work at the Nebraska Capitol, the largest commission of his 70 year career.
