loved the variety of the collections! there's artworks from the ancient to modern times and include asian, latin, and islamic art. You can find pieces from Picasso,Monet,Modigliani,Gaugin,Cezanne..
The Islamic art is located on the 4th floor of Ahmanson building.Unfortunately,its so limited.Since jan'15,they featured contemporary Islamic art&removed the ancient art&will switch back again in '18!
At the LACMA Café, I absent-mindedly rearranged the ingredients of my fruit salad into a smiling face. I returned from the restroom to discover my creation had been awarded Best in Show.
If you're an LA local, or on a budget, look up free museum days & free museum hours! Wonderful staff, and a wide variety of art to please a wide variety of tastes in art. Next to a beautiful park.
As the largest museum in the western USA, can be challenging to navigate its 7 buildings (some are currently closed for refitting) plus outdoor exhibits. Get a campus map.
Great area. Has the iconic lamps that everyone goes to for the 'gram! Upstairs is a cute cafe called C+M and there's wifi so you're able to work on their patio outside and soak up the sun.
