The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is the largest art museum in the western United States with collections that encompass the geographic world and virtually the entire history of art. Particularly strong are the museum’s holdings of Asian Art, Latin American Art, Islamic Art and Contemporary Art. A museum of international stature as well as a vital part of cultural life in Southern California, LACMA shares its vast collections through exhibitions, public programs and research facilities that attract nearly a million visitors annually.

Located in the heart of Los Angeles, it is comprised of a seven-building complex that is currently undergoing a ten-year expansion and renovation project known as the “Transformation” designed by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop. The first phase of the project opened in 2008 introducing an open-air pavilion called the BP Grand Entrance as well as the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at LACMA, featuring three floors of exhibition space. BCAM’s inaugural installation includes impressive spaces devoted to the art of contemporary figures such as Richard Serra, Barbara Kruger, John Baldessari, Ed Ruscha, Cindy Sherman, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Damien Hirst, Chris Burden, Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns.
