Dinosaurs of Santa Monica


Dinosaurs of Santa Monica - Images by Fabian Lewkowicz

Members from the Santa Monica Police Activities League, the Santa Monica Boys and Girls Club and the Santa Monica Family YMCA take photos of Claude and Francois LaLanne’s "Dinosaurs of Santa Monica," 1989, during "Kids With Cameras" Summer Photo Workshop at the Third Street Promenade on Wednesday, July 13, 2011.

Claude and Francois LaLanne created sculptures for the Third Street Promenade, which function as fountains and topiaries (a framework for plants to grow). They stated that once the plants grow in, the dinosaurs will lose their monstrous aspect and become more "kind."

The kids were asked, "How have the sculptures changed and developed?"
