Moss and Jack Rutberg have been stalwarts of the Los Angeles gallery art scene. Through the years as galleries relocated from La Cienega Blvd. and Melrose Ave., to downtown and the westside, and more recently to Wilshire Blvd. and Culver City, this steadfast trio has been the touch- stone and foundation of the Hollywood art scene. Interviewing Jack Rutberg, he reaffirmed his pas- sion for the legacy of Hans Burkhardt whose work he will be exhibiting as part of Pacific Standard Time. He's also working on the upcoming exhibition at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery. According to Rut- berg, "Hans Burkhardt, LAMAG and Barnsdall Park are vastly underrated and deserve more credit for their impact on Los Angeles and its artists." Darryl Couturier will exhibit the ceramic art of Gertrude and Otto Natzler for Pacific Stan- dard Time. Included in the vast number of Latin American he has represented is Alberto Korda whose photo of Che Guevera is one of the most reproduced images of all time . Tobey C. Moss, commented that the Getty's Pacific Stan- dard Time initiative is precisely what she has been ex- hibiting and pro- moting through her gallery since open- ing in 1978. She also has been at the forefront in repre- senting both Chicano and Latin American artists. Fittingly, her exhibit for the initiative is titled Not Standard. The participating galleries will present more than 125 exhibitions throughout Pacific Gertrude and Otto Natzler's ceramics will be exhibited at Couturier Gallery Oct 23- Nov 26.
