Director’s Note<br />
After years of planning and months of con<strong>st</strong>ruction on campus—plus eleven days and nights of well-publicized<br />
transportation—Michael Heizer’s Levitated Mass is open to the public. The arti<strong>st</strong> himself was at <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a for four weeks<br />
this spring, practical<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> living on campus in his beautiful Air<strong>st</strong>ream trailer with his wife and collaborator, Mary, and<br />
their border collie, Tomato Rose. He was here to oversee the placement of the megalith atop the 456-foot-long slot<br />
outside of the Resnick Pavilion. I am incredib<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> happy to see all the work on this artwork completed—not on<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> by the<br />
arti<strong>st</strong> but also by the engineers, crews, and <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a <strong>st</strong>aff who have put in so much time and effort. I am especial<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong><br />
pleased to have the artwork dedicated by <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a to its former chair of the board of tru<strong>st</strong>ees, the late Nancy Da<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong>.<br />
Michael Heizer is one of the mo<strong>st</strong> influential arti<strong>st</strong>s of the la<strong>st</strong> half century, even if many of his seminal artworks<br />
can’t possib<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> be displayed inside of an art museum. To give some context to his work, opening in conjunction with<br />
Levitated Mass is Michael Heizer: Actual Size, two large-scale in<strong>st</strong>allations in the Resnick Pavilion and bcam—a monumental<br />
photograph projection whose subject is Heizer’s 1969 artwork Munich Depression, as well as massive photographs<br />
of rocks in their natural environment.<br />
Actual Size is one more example of the growing presence of photography at <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a. Britt Salvesen, head of the Wallis<br />
Annenberg Photography Department, is co-curator, with Stephanie Barron, of Sharon Lockhart | Noa Eshkol, as well as<br />
curator of the soon-to-open The Sun and Other Stars: Katy Grannan and Charlie White. That is on<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> a slice of the activity<br />
happening within our photography department in <strong>2012</strong>. This year the museum also mounted exhibitions for Robert<br />
Adams and Daido Moriyama; in the fall, you’ll also get your fir<strong>st</strong> ta<strong>st</strong>e of the major Robert Mapplethorpe collection<br />
<<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a joint<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> acquired la<strong>st</strong> year with the Getty. For those with a passion for photography, there is always something<br />
to see here.<br />
Summer is in full swing at <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a. I encourage you to bring your fami<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> soon to enjoy this beautiful museum in a park,<br />
whether you experience Levitated Mass, enjoy our many summer concert series—Jazz at <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a, Latin Sounds, and the<br />
new hip hop series Through the Mic—or <strong>st</strong>ep inside our galleries to see the incredible expressions of centuries pa<strong>st</strong>.<br />

Collectors Committee Makes Seven Acquisitions<br />
The annual Collectors Committee Weekend took place<br />
on April 20–21 and resulted in $2.8 million raised for<br />
seven acquisitions. Using a pool of funds contributed<br />
by members, the Collectors Committee voted to acquire<br />
Robert Rauschenberg’s sixty-foot-long print Currents<br />
(1970); a Louis Sullivan–designed elevator surround from<br />
the Chicago Stock Exchange Building; a twelfth-century<br />
Japanese Buddhi<strong>st</strong> sculpture, Fudō Myōō: The Indomitable<br />
Foe of Evil; Albrecht Dürer’s Ma<strong>st</strong>er Engraving Saint Jerome<br />
in His Study; and two paintings by the eighteenth-century<br />
New Spanish arti<strong>st</strong> Nicolás Enríquez. <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a tru<strong>st</strong>ee<br />

Levitated Mass<br />
Now on view | Resnick Pavilion North Lawn<br />
Michael Heizer, Levitated Mass, conceived 1969, realized <strong>2012</strong>, © Michael Heizer<br />
Levitated Mass by Michael Heizer is composed of a 456-foot-long slot<br />
con<strong>st</strong>ructed on <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a’s campus, over which is placed a 340-ton<br />
granite megalith. Heizer conceived of the artwork in 1969 but<br />
discovered an appropriate boulder on<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> decades later in Riverside<br />
County, California. Earlier this year, all of <strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> watched<br />
as the boulder was transported 105 miles from its quarry to <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a.<br />
Since the boulder’s arrival, Heizer has overseen the creation of this<br />
incredible artwork, now open to the public. Taken whole, Levitated<br />
Mass speaks to the expanse of art hi<strong>st</strong>ory—from ancient traditions<br />
of creating artworks from megalithic <strong>st</strong>one to modern forms<br />
of ab<strong>st</strong>ract geometries and cutting-edge feats of engineering.<br />
Also on view is Michael Heizer: Actual Size—large-scale photographic<br />
works by the arti<strong>st</strong>. In the Resnick Pavilion, and shown for the fir<strong>st</strong><br />
time in more than three decades, Actual Size: Munich Rotary (1971)<br />
uses six cu<strong>st</strong>om film projectors to exhibit six spliced images at the<br />
original actual size of the arti<strong>st</strong>’s 1969 negative sculpture, Munich<br />
Depression, built in the outskirts of Munich, Germany—a depression<br />
measuring one hundred feet in diameter and sixteen feet deep that<br />
displaced 1,000 tons of rock and earth. In<strong>st</strong>alled in bcam is a series<br />
of fifteen individual photographic prints from 1970 of actual<br />
size monolithic rocks. Michael Heizer: Actual Size is on view through<br />
September 9.<br />
Levitated Mass was made possible by gifts to Transformation: The LACMA<br />
Campaign from Jane and Terry Semel, Bobby Kotick, Carole Bayer Sager and<br />
Bob Da<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong>, Beth and Joshua Friedman, Steve Tisch Fami<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> Foundation, Elaine<br />

Fami<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> Foundation, and is dedicated by <<strong>st</strong>rong>lacm</<strong>st</strong>rong>a to the memory of Nancy Da<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong>.<br />
Transportation was made possible by<br />
Actual Size: Munich Rotary was organized by the <strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> County Museum<br />

The Sun and Other Stars: Katy Grannan and Charlie White brings<br />
together two photographers whose bodies of work, together,<br />
map the fragility and resilience of individuality in contemporary<br />
We<strong>st</strong>ern culture. Grannan’s unflinching portraits along<br />
sun-<strong>st</strong>ruck boulevards elevate her subjects from obscurity,<br />
while White’s series of blonde teen girls frames the popular<br />
and tyrannical appetite for celebrity with an unsentimental<br />
lens. Through near<<strong>st</strong>rong>ly</<strong>st</strong>rong> seventy-five photos, as well as a threechannel<br />
video in<strong>st</strong>allation by Grannan and White’s video<br />
animation, this exhibition examines the complexity of the<br />
human condition and the effects of desire and aspiration.<br />

EXHIBITION<br />
. . . Is James Bond<br />
Through September 9 | Art of the Americas Building<br />
From Soviet agents to Caribbean drug lords, Kissy<br />
Suzuki to Octopussy, Sean Connery to Daniel Craig—<br />
in the fifty years since the fir<strong>st</strong> James Bond film,<br />
villains, Bond girls, and the actors who have played<br />
007 have changed to reflect a society in flux. Over the<br />
course of twenty-two films, one element has remained<br />
con<strong>st</strong>ant: Maurice Binder’s unmi<strong>st</strong>akable opening credit<br />
sequences. Organized with Loyola Marymount University’s<br />
School of Film and Television, . . . Is James Bond is<br />
an in<strong>st</strong>allation of all twenty-two opening sequences,<br />
which explores them as unique and groundbreaking<br />
cinema—filmmaking that is as daring as 007 himself.<br />
This exhibition was co-organized by the <strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> County Museum of Art<br />
and Loyola Marymount University’s School of Film and Television. The<br />
organizers are grateful for the special collaboration of Danjaq LLC and<br />
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios.<br />
