  1. Southern California architecture: the missing early years from PSTP

    Two years ago, when the Getty Trust helped organize and fund more than five dozen exhibits on 20th century art in Los Angeles, a massive enterprise it labeled "Pacific Standard Time," it wasn't difficult to guess which era the museum would focus on. It was clearly going to be the postwar period, and the 1950s, '60s and '70s in particular.

  3. Review: Flashes of lightning in Trisha Brown's 'Astral Converted'

    The Sunset Canyon Amphitheatre, at the northwest corner of the UCLA campus, is not exactly the wilds. The bleachers overlook a recreation center's grassy knoll and a swimming pool in the distance. Still, the amphitheater is hidden away and, thanks to UCLA's parking militia, mildly inaccessible to the public. If that touch of trouble and remove helped make Sunset Canyon an enchanted, although challenging, venue Thursday night for Trisha Brown's "Astral Converted," it also helped remind us just how radically times have changed over the last two decades.

  7. Trisha Brown retrospective will lift off at UCLA and beyond

    The point &mdash; or at least one point &mdash; of Trisha Brown&rsquo;s dance is that it can&rsquo;t be pinned down. Literally or metaphorically.
    The point — or at least one point — of Trisha Brown’s dance is that it can’t be pinned down. Literally or metaphorically. She has always liked, for instance, to leave the ground. So, along with two programs in Royce Hall on...

  11. Getty's Peter Paul Rubens work is subject of intrigue

    A picture may be worth a thousand words, but this one has inspired many more, because it has become a departure point for how Europeans became acquainted with Asia.

  19. Dennis Reed to discuss 'Japanese American Photography' book at Glendale Central Library

  23. L.A. architecture takes the lead in Getty's new PST project

    Much of the time Los Angeles can feel like a huge, messy jigsaw puzzle, with pieces left out &mdash; a city that evolved by accident. Parts of it don't work, parts of it seem newly broken, parts are truly luminous &mdash; but hidden &mdash; and they all seem to have nothing to do with each other.
