La Brea, Stephen Shore's key photograph of 1975, constitutes the conceptual core of the La Brea Matrix Project. Six art photographers from Germany have accepted an invitation to Los Angeles as part of an artist-in-residence program in 2009 and 2010 to search for photographic points of reference to this iconic picture.

In their previous work, these eminent photographers have reflected on American New Color photography in extremely different ways.
