LACMA Unveils Ambitious $724 Million David Geffen Galleries
The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) has officially opened its new David Geffen Galleries, a project that has garnered both excitement and mixed reviews. Spanning nearly $724 million, the galleries feature a rich array of artworks, including a living sculpture by Jeff Koons and a newly relocated Alexander Calder piece from 1965. Critics and visitors have described the space as ambitious and disorienting, yet vibrantly alive. Highlights include a carefully curated list of 17 must-see works of art, and a unique experience that invites guests to explore the galleries while enjoying wine. As the institution adapts to the new environment, many are eager to see how this major overhaul will influence the art scene in Los Angeles.
