Photographing the 2013 Opening of Leica Store LA

It might be old news that Leica opened a store in Los Angeles back in 2013, but nonetheless, it’s still a place that will be an important photography destination for years to come and definitely worth a visit if you’re in L.A.

Photographer Art Gray was on-hand (shooting on a Leica of course) to document the opening of the three-level, 8,000 square foot superstore -- a space that includes a 1,000-pound stainless steel sculpture by Liao Yibai in the form of a massive representation of a Leica aptly titled “Fake Leica” (and with a reported price tag of over $1 million).
