‘light is what allows you to be rather extreme or radical when you are creating a space for art, without fearing competition with the artwork because light is always good for art.’, image © 2010 museum associates/LACMA | photo courtesy of LACMA. a climbing wall and nets allow the family to travel between levels without ever using the staircase. because it’s all on one level, you can pick the size for your exhibition; you don’t have to be bound to a box of a certain size, which is true of almost all the other spaces of LACMA.

Its travertine stone cladding creates a visual unity with LACMA West. Status: Completed works the new building is a minimalist rectangle of glass and stone with a zigzagging roof that filters a generous amount of light. To optimize interior space, the services are on the outside of the building, creating what LACMA bills as ‘the largest purpose-built, naturally lit, open-plan museum space in the world’. ‘the building is more than a building: it expresses a lot of the fundamental ideas about the future of the museum and the definition of the museum. it is named after los angeles-based philanthropists lynda and stewart resnick who made a 45 million dollar donation (plus 10 million dollars in artwork). Year: 2010 the resnick pavilion is about mixing art of different times and places, but for me it’s just as important to mix audiences and to take forward this idea that we have a town square, that the audiences will mix,’ says michael govan, director of LACMA. A recurring motif around the museum campus is the use of the colour red, punctuating the otherwise restrained travertine facades. BCAM is an H-plan three-storey building, volumetrically quite massive. currently the three exhibitions are on view: ‘eye for the sensual: selections from the resnick collection’;  ‘olmec: colossal masterworks of ancient mexico’; and ‘fashioning fashion: european dress in detail, 1700-1915’. The Resnick Pavilion – Courtesy of Renzo Piano Building Workshop. see the interactive tour of the pavilion on the LA times. BCAM’s entire collection is displayed in large 80-foot free span galleries, totalling 65.000 sqf, arranged on three levels. The expansion is a huge spherical construction, topped by a dome-covered panoramic roof terrace, which contains a 1,000-seat auditorium. The second phase of the ongoing project for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) was the construction of the Resnick Pavilion. The middle level, with no openings in the façade, is a space dedicated to temporary and special exhibitions.

Featuring a steel canopy, the pavilion seems to be floating over a vast courtyard that opens northwards to the park and southwards to Wilshire Boulevard. Overall, the museum complex comprises galleries for permanent and special exhibitions, two theaters, workshops, education studios, a library, a restaurant, and a store. at night, the glass walls that line the pavilion transforms the resnick into a lantern structure. LACMA hopes that the pavilion will serve as a town square for the city at all hours. the path measures almost 700 meters, rising to offer spectacular views of the surrounding greenery and distant mountains.
