• Fine_Arts_Building_(Los_Angeles) abstract "The celebrated Fine Arts Building in Los Angeles was built by the architects Albert Raymond Walker (1881–1958) and Percy Augustin Eisen (1885–1946) in 1927, it stands at 811 West 7th Street in the Californian city as a compact twelve-storey block on an H-shaped plan with a facing of smooth, regular slabs of light-coloured stone. The building is also known as Global Marine House.The first three storeys present an extraordinary façade with a trapezoidal profile. It was declared a historic cultural monument in 1974. As it should, the façade rises the whole height of the building, the side of which on the street is divided into three horizontal registers that echo the classic arrangement of the Renaissance palace in distinct lower, central and upper sections. In the Fine Arts Building as in its ancient Italian models, being closest to the eye of the beholder, the bottom section is the part on which the most sumptuous decoration and precise architectural definition is lavished. The central axis is emphasized by a large entrance with a rounded arch that rises the height of two storeys. This deep, splayed passageway has an arched lintel decorated with plant motifs that introduces serried ranks of arches on either side resting alternately on small columns and pillars variously decorated with fantastic creatures and inlaid geometric patterns. The wall beneath the great arch is densely worked with volutes of acanthus leaves and concatenated circles simulating rope made entirely of terracotta. The entrance is divided in two by a column of green marble with a capital and decorated entablature on which the two smaller arches rest. Echoes of the architecture of the temple and the religious edifice return majestically in the three uppermost storeys with a double order of arches on spiral columns, capitals decorated with foliage, and keystones with small animal heads. A tympanum with a curious internal colonnade crowns the façade in a riot of minute decoration and majestic sculptural groups.Inside, an extraordinary two-storey lobby is set in great wall arches that enclose small arches on brackets at the lower level and a large balcony-type gallery above. The gallery, with spaces designed for artists’ studios, is modelled on the matroneum overlooking the nave in a church. On the walls, sumptuously decorated with ceramic panels and small sculptural inserts, seventeen showcases made of glass and finely chased bronze like precious reliquaries display the tenants’ paintings, sculptures and artworks. A shallow pool adorned with bronze sculptures gleams in the centre of the atrium. The Fine Arts Building still asserts itself in the 21st century as a total work of art where architecture, sculpture and painting coexist splendidly in one extraordinary edifice.In June 2012, Los Angeles Fine Arts Building was purchased by Sorgente Group of America.Wildcatter Russell E. Havenstrite owned a penthouse in the building.The building appears in the film (500) Days of Summer, where the protagonist — an aspiring architect — describes it as his favorite building.The lobby houses Gallery 1927, which utilizes the lobby's gilded cases for their original intention of showcasing art. Gallery 1927 was founded by Kristen English and Kelli Manthei in 2008.".
