This one-hour gallery tour provides an in-depth view. The photographs of Sidney B. Felsen (b. 1924) eloquently document the remarkable history of Gemini G.E.L, the Los Angeles artist's workshop and publisher of limited-edition prints and sculpture, founded in 1966. They capture with great empathy the joy and demands of the creative process, record the many close friendships fostered with artists who collaborated at Gemini, and bear witness to the evolving Los Angeles art scene. Arrive 15 minutes early to secure your spot in the Research Institute lobby.

Note: Tours unavailable April 10, April 17, June 26 and July 3.
