  2. Art of the ancient Americas may not be your thing, but you have to love this earthenware crab vessel. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules. 🦀 This is going into our imaginary museum replica store, pronto.

  7. one of midcentury America’s eccentric savants, a prodigy and polymath

    Michael Kimmelman reviews (here) Bruce Goff: Material Worlds, a recent exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago. He also manages to slide in a review of sorts for the new LACMA by Zumthor.

    “The Chicago show is a revelation and hoot, but you can also get a dose of Goff by visiting the new home for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, when it opens this spring.

    It’s a showstopper on stilts, bestriding Wilshire Boulevard, designed by the Swiss architect Peter Zumthor. I mention it because Goff designed the pavilion next door. Zumthor’s floor-to-ceiling windows provide a new High Line-level view of the neighbor…It was among the last projects Goff worked on before his death, completed by his colleague Bart Prince in 1988. The architecture shocked Angelenos at the time. It is now embraced as a civic icon. It’s a masterpiece of 20th century Americana. I suspect it will give Zumthor’s behemoth a run for its money.”

  12. In 1970, LACMA's exhibition had zero women artists, reflecting a long history of gender bias in major museums. Activists like the Guerrilla Girls and initiatives like Gallery Tally have spotlighted this inequity. While progress is being made, structural changes are necessary to ensure real representation. California's legal frameworks empower individuals to address discrimination in cultural institutions. #WomenInArt #GenderEquity #ArtActivism #LACMA #DiscriminationRights
