Angels Point - Hardcover

by Adam Ianniello (Author)

In this book, photographer Adam Ianniello has documented Angels Point--a park on a cliff's edge that consists of a series of public access paths and asphalt roads alongside the Elysian mountain range on the east side of Los Angeles. It is a piece of tranquil wilderness that overlooks the sprawling concrete of the city below, enveloped in thick brush and old trees, accessible through small winding trails. Photographed over a period of four years, Angels Point, in the words of Ianiello, '... stands at the edge of the new and the forgotten. A place to hide, to explore, with no commitments, no judgments.
