酋长岩，好莱坞

In the interwar period elaborate and stylish movie theatres which simulate architectural styles of the past were built all over America. Sugimoto has taken photographs in several hundred of these, focusing on the screen and ornate proscenium. He exposes his film to the duration of the movie, so that what is seen on the screen in the resulting image is the imprint of the projection. Most frequently Sugimoto records the duration of Westerns as the predominance of outdoor scenes combine to produce the intensity of light captured in this image.
