Скачать или смотреть Los Angeles County Museum of Art | Ed Ruscha | Simone Leigh

Since its founding in 1965, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) has grown into the largest art museum in the western U.S., showcasing diverse art from various times and places. More recently, the museum has expanded with new additions like the Broad Contemporary Art Museum (BCAM), completed in 2008. That same year, Chris Burden’s “Urban Light,” a large installation of vintage street lamps, was placed at the entrance and has since become a beloved symbol of LACMA.

Inside the Resnick Pavilion, Mark Bradford’s 150 Portrait Tone is on display.
A few steps away, Simone Leigh’s 20-year retrospective incorporates ceramics, bronze, video, installation, and pieces from the 2022 Venice Biennale, exploring Black female identity with references to African art, architecture, and diasporic traditions.

Ed Ruscha’s exhibition, which transitioned from MoMA in New York to LACMA in April, will be on view until October 6, 2024. It presents his remarkable cross-media practice, showing Ruscha's unique blend of popular culture, typography, and wit. His work spans from pop art, conceptual art, photorealism, and many more, with painting at the heart of his practice. Notable works such as Chocolate Room and Actual Size (1962) are found on level 2 of the BCAM.
