FEATURED EVENTS

Days of Reverie - Descanso Gardens

Descanso Gardens presents Days of Reverie showcasing new bodies of work by four Los Angeles-based visual artists: Catherine Ruane, Debbie Korbel, Jason Jenn, and Jill Sykes. Accompanying these visual works is a specially composed musical score by Joseph Carrillo, the exhibition’s guest artist. This project was initiated and curated by Vojislav Radovanović, who envisioned each artist creating entirely new works inspired directly by the beautiful environment of Descanso Gardens. The works presented in this project vary from paintings, drawings, and sculptures to interactive site-specific installations, sound, and video. The Sturt Haaga Gallery and its programs are funded, in part, by an endowment from Heather Sturt Haaga and Paul G. Haaga, Jr. Days of Reverie is open at the Sturt Haaga Gallery from October 25, 2024–January 26, 2025, 10am–4pm daily. Entry to the Gallery is included in the price of admission or membership.

Ultra-Violet: New Light on Van Gogh’s Irises - Getty Center

Examine Getty’s much-loved painting, Irises by Vincent Van Gogh, from the perspective of modern conservation science. This exhibition shows how the artist’s understanding of light and color informed his painting practice, and how conservators and scientists working together can harness the power of light with analytical tools that uncover the artist’s materials and working methods. Lastly, the exhibition reveals how light has irrevocably changed some of the colors in Irises. A painting we thought we knew so well has suddenly become quite unfamiliar.
