Director’s Note 

The fall season is ramping up at lacma. Between September and November we have no fewer than ten new exhibitions 

opening. From L.A. icons Ken Price and Ed Ruscha, both of whom have exhibitions opening in September, to 130 beautiful 

seventeenth- and eighteenth-century French ceramics on view in Daily Pleasures (October 6), to outstanding drawings 

by surrealist greats like Salvador Dalí, Rene Magritte, Joan Miró, and more in Drawing Surrealism (October 21). In November 

we are excited to open two incredible exhibitions—Stanley Kubrick and Bodies and Shadows: Caravaggio and His Legacy. 

These will both be specially ticketed exhibitions. As a benefit of membership, you will receive free tickets to both—a 

token of our thanks for your essential support. 

Indeed, your support has enabled lacma to accomplish a great deal in the last few years. With the additions of the 

Resnick Pavilion and bcam, our ability to present a greater number of exhibitions had increased dramatically. Six years 

ago we mounted just nine special exhibitions in an entire year. In our most recent fiscal year that number doubled to 

eighteen. Additionally, more of our permanent collection has been on view than ever before—from Egyptian antiquities 

to masterpieces of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese art, to art from Europe, Latin America, and more. Your membership 

supports our efforts to present it all. Thank you. 

In addition to the many exhibitions opening this season, there are even more reasons to keep coming back to lacma. 

I hope you’ve had a chance to stop in to C+M, our new coffee shop located on the plaza just across from the Art of the 

Americas Building. The new café is overseen by Patina’s Joachim Splichal and Ray’s executive chef Kris Morningstar, 

with pastries by chef Josh Graves, coffee from Intelligentsia, and delicious milkshakes and desserts. It’s the perfect spot 

to stop for a pick-me-up while you’re in between galleries or on your way to a film screening in the Bing Theater or other 

events. Take a look at the calendar and event listings on the next few pages: lacma is brimming with activity. Exhibitions, 

films, concerts, and more—any time you come, you’ll find something inspiring.

news & highlights 

Art + Film Gala to Honor Ed Ruscha, Stanley Kubrick 

Now in its second year, lacma’s annual Art + Film Gala 

brings together notables from the art, film, fashion, and 

entertainment industries to honor icons from the art 

and film worlds while supporting the museum’s overall 

mission. This year the gala, to be held October 27, will 

honor artist Ed Ruscha and filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, 

with director Steven Spielberg paying tribute to the late 

filmmaker. Once again, the event is co-chaired by actor 

Leonardo DiCaprio and lacma trustee Eva Chow, with 

Gucci generously serving as presenting sponsor. Exhibitions 

for both Ruscha and Kubrick will also be on view 

at lacma: Ed Ruscha: Standard opens September 22, while 

Stanley Kubrick opens to the public November 1. There 

will also be related public programs highlighting 

the works of both artists on October 26 and 27; visit 

lacma.org for detailed program information. 

Levitated Mass Opens to Thousands 

More than 6,000 people came to lacma for Michael 

Heizer’s Levitated Mass on June 24—the largest number 

of opening-day visitors for an artwork or exhibition in 

lacma’s history. The monumental sculpture has remained 

a popular draw for locals and tourists alike all summer 

long, drawing more than 130,000 visitors to date. Also 

on view now is the exhibition Michael Heizer: Actual Size, 

featuring the artist’s large-scale photographs of natural 

rock formations and a room-size projection of his 1969 

artwork Munich Depression, scaled to the actual size of 

the original piece. 

Robert Looker, 1922–2012 

The museum lost a great friend and patron when lacma 

trustee Robert Looker passed away on June 28, 2012. Mr. 

Looker was a member of the board since 1998 and 

actively served on several board committees. He had an 

astute eye for collecting and supported the breadth of 

lacma’s encyclopedic collection as a member of the 

board’s Acquisition Committee and the Collectors 

Committee. Many objects on view in lacma’s galleries, 

from textiles to modern and contemporary works to 

objects from Southeast Asia and Africa were purchased 

thanks to Mr. Looker’s support. He will be missed. 

New Acquisitions for Art Here and Now 

Since 1963 lacma has been supporting young and 

emerging Los Angeles artists through an annual acquisitions 

program, originally known as the Young Talent 

Award (yta) and subsequently renamed Art Here and 

Now (ahan). This year, through the support of the 

acquisitions group Art Here and Now: Studio Forum, 

lacma has acquired six artworks by five artists: 

Mark Hagen, William E. Jones, Sanya Kantarovsky, 

Dianna Molzan, and Brenna Youngblood. The objects 

range from digital video to painting, sculpture, and 

three-dimensional mixed media. These artists join a 

legacy of past yta and ahan recipients that include Chris 

Burden, Mary Corse, Tim Hawkinson, Mark Bradford, 

Ruben Ochoa, and more. 

In Wonderland Travels to Mexico 

In Wonderland: The Surrealist Adventures of Women Artists 

in Mexico and the United States, which closed at lacma 

in May and then traveled to the Musée national des 

beaux-arts du Québec, will complete its North American 

tour when it opens at Museo de Arte Moderno (mam), 

Mexico City, on September 27. The exhibition, which 

was co-organized by lacma and mam, will join another 

lacma-organized exhibition also currently on view in 

Mexico City: Contested Visions in the Spanish Colonial World, 

at the Museo Nacional de Historia, Castillo de Chapultepec, 

through October 7. 

Lewis Klahr Films in Stark Bar 

Since opening at lacma in 2011, Stark Bar has featured 

time-based media works on its monitors, including work 

by Vito Acconci, Brody Condon, Nan Hoover, and others. 

Beginning in October, lacma will feature the work of 

internationally acclaimed Los Angeles filmmaker 

Lewis Klahr. Klahr’s experimental films have previously 

been included in the Whitney Biennial, the International 

Film Festival Rotterdam, the Wexner Center for the 

Arts, and the permanent collection of the Museum of 

Modern Art. Klahr assembles exhilarating and enigmatic 

collages comprised of meticulously culled images and 

textures from an array of midcentury ephemera. A 

selection of Klahr’s films will be on view at Stark Bar 

through winter 2013.

Ken Price (1935–2012) redefined contemporary sculpture for more than fifty years with a 

constantly evolving practice that was uniquely positioned between sculpture and painting. 

This first retrospective of Price’s work in nearly twenty-five years presents one hundred 

objects that chart the lyrical progression of the artist’s career—from his luminously glazed 

ovoid forms of the 1960s to the mottled, molten-like slumps that he had been creating in 

the years just before his death. At the time of his passing, Price had been working closely 

with curator Stephanie Barron and architect Frank O. Gehry, Price’s longtime friend, to create 

and design lacma’s retrospective, a fitting tribute to this exceptional, influential artist. 

This exhibition was organized by the Los Angeles 

County Museum of Art. It was made possible 

through major grants from the llww Foundation, 

The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, 

and The Aaron and Betty Lee Stern Foundation. 

Generous support for the catalogue was provided 

by The Shifting Foundation and Friends of 

Contemporary Ceramics. 

Marketing support by Matthew Marks Gallery.

Drawing Surrealism 

October 21, 2012–January 6, 2013 | bcam 

member preview days: october 18 –20 

From the very beginning of the surrealist movement, drawing was a central medium for 

its practitioners. Surrealists employed techniques such as automatic drawing, the exquisite 

corpse, and frottage as artistic means to tap into the subconscious realm. lacma’s 

exhibition Drawing Surrealism is the first of its kind to focus on drawing as surrealist artists’ 

predominant means of innovation and expression. Featuring more than two hundred and 

fifty works by ninety artists from sixteen countries, Drawing Surrealism is an unprecedented 

investigation into the impact of surrealist drawing on a global scale. 

This exhibition was co-organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Morgan Library & Museum, 

New York, and was supported in part by lacma’s Prints and Drawings Council. Additional funding was provided 

by Erika Glazer and Myron Laskin.
