Concrete Basilica

The beauty of the Los Angeles River bridges rivals that of any structure over the Seine or the Arno, but as urban sprawl draws Angelenos away from what was once the city center, they are often overlooked. David Eddington's paintings demonstrate an eloquence that urges the audience to rediscover these forgotten monoliths. The artist reawakens his viewers to their city by offering his personal vision of the bridges- a vision that, in spite of Eddington's earnestness, is imbued with grandeur.
