» Getty Foundation Gives Out $3.1 Million In Grants
The Getty Foundation Wednesday announced it’s giving out $3.1 million in grants to support a massive, Southern California-wide series of exhibitions, Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945-1980, to take place in 2011 and 2012.
The money is going to 26 regional institutions to support their roles in the program that celebrates 30 “thematically linked” exhibitions — what the foundation calls “the largest collaborative project ever undertaken by museums in the region” — that showcase postwar art in Southern California.
The money will help institutions from San Diego to Santa Barbara and from the sea to Palm Springs participate in Pacific Standard Time. LACMA, the J. Paul Getty Museum, MOCA, the Hammer Museum, the Orange County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, the Museum of Latin American Art and more are scheduled to participate.
Loving all this Southern California love and cooperation!
