The International Los Angeles Photographic Art Exposition photo l.a. kicked off its 22nd year with a benefit gala at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium last night. A reception that featured music by the Allah-las, food by L.A. chef Fred Eric, and yes, even tequila, helped to celebrate and honor legendary photographers Phil Stern and Bill Eppridge and launch the annual art fair.
