Visiting David Geffen Galleries—LACMA’s new home for its permanent collection showcasing 6,000 years of art from around the world—is a museum experience unlike any other. Crafted from architectural concrete and glass, the building’s organic form spans Wilshire Boulevard, a sculptural whole that embraces the neighborhood. Outside, its elevated gallery floor creates 3.5 acres of shaded public space below. Inside, visitors discover a revolutionary curatorial approach as diverse and open as Los Angeles itself as they roam airy terrace galleries with floor-to-ceiling windows, plaza-like courtyard galleries where stories converge, and intimate interior galleries that encourage contemplation.
