I really love the museums in Los Angeles. The city has a real wealth of quality but in my opinion LACMA is the top. It doesn't have the architectural unification of Getty Center but its diversity is its beauty. The same can be said of the collections. Wonderful and diverse.
Also shares space with the La Brea Tar Pits, Page Museum and Peterson is across the street. I believe a metro station is being opened soon which will be great for those of us who would like to take the train.

For the 25 USD that the general admission cost is a quite poor museum. Moreover taking into account that opening hours for summer hours is a quite narrow window. Not all people want to visit a museum on a weekend when it's the busiest time.
Korean calligraphy exhibition was great, same for the playtime exhibition. Metropolis II is an excellent exhibition, it's a pity that they only run it on Friday and Saturdays. Again, LA, what's going on with your schedules? Do you think tourists only visit LA on weekends during summer holidays?
Guards where quite rude as well. You feel everytime persecuted, as if you were a criminal... In some rooms there were more guards than people!! Also when they close they made us leave the outside gallery with benches... What's the point of having an outside gallery with benches if after closing time you cannot sit and relax after walking a lot. Weird conception of a museum and hospitality they have. Anyway, I really feel sad that the bad running of the museum ruined my experience as there are so many good artists on view. I really hope you improve this!!

LACMA is just amazing. I make it a point to go by at least once whenever I'm in the city. It's such a great place to relax, look at unique sculptures, and take great pictures. Urban Light is by far my favorite and is always great to see during the day and night time.

It's one of the top museums in LA and they always have a good sense to bring good tracking shows in so you will always be happy you visited. Their excellent Assyrian and middle Eastern collections are quite the sight to see

I went there to write so this review is more about their on prem coffee shop than LACMA. The coffee shop is a great place to be able to sit and write in the afternoon. They have electrical sockets outside on the walls. No electrical outlets inside the coffee shop. They have open wifi which is a bit spotty. I had to use my cell phone as a hot spot

The museum outside have this iconic style and view to take the photos. It s not crowded around 5pm, but to visit the museum inside it s open till 5pm (that s why I couldn t get inside, because it was closed already to buy the ticket)

The best! Check out Levitated Mass. Michael Heizer is a genius and we need to make a cult where he gives daily seminars or something. Probably out in the desert around Vegas because the area around LACMA didn t look so cult-friendly. It s probably self aggrandizing if he does his own crown tho so dm me if you commission in the metal scene.

I wish I had more time to explore, this is a whole campus of buildings full of art! I'm thinking you can't take pictures inside any of them...I didn't see any signs saying not to, but I was told to stop taking a photo by one of the guards. :/

In love with the variety of the collections here. Here's artworks from the ancient to modern times and include asian, latin, and islamic art. You must walk around the museum. Museum is not big. And it's easy to explore in less time.

One of the great art museums in the U.S. If you are a Los Angeles County resident you can get a discount for admission tickets. Great artists, wide variety of activities. First rate facility. I saw the The Bauhaus at 100: Modern Legacies exhibition and it blew me away.

Beautiful, eclectic museum that has grown over the years. David Hockney's Mulholland Drive: The Road To The Studio is here, along with a Renzo Piano sculpture and a Calder sculpture and the installation art Urban Light. Three Rothkos (my favorite artist). Magritte's The Treachery of Images (Ceci n'est pas une pipe) is here, and Rivera's Flower Day along with a beautiful section called the Pavilion for Japanese Art. A great place to spend a couple hours. Two places to eat. A nice gift shop. I do love this place.

About LACMA

LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) is a world-renowned art museum located in Los Angeles, California. It is the largest art museum in the western United States and attracts visitors from all over the world. The museum's mission is to inspire creativity and dialogue by connecting people with cultures from ancient times to the present.

The history of LACMA dates back to 1910 when a group of civic leaders formed the Los Angeles Museum Association. The association was dedicated to establishing a museum that would showcase art and culture from around the world. Over time, this vision became a reality as LACMA grew into one of the most important cultural institutions in Southern California.

Today, LACMA's collection includes more than 150,000 works of art spanning thousands of years. Visitors can explore everything from ancient Egyptian artifacts to contemporary paintings and sculptures. Some of the most popular exhibits include works by Pablo Picasso, Diego Rivera, and Frida Kahlo.

In addition to its permanent collection, LACMA also hosts numerous temporary exhibitions throughout the year. These exhibitions feature works by both established artists and up-and-coming talents from around the world.

One thing that sets LACMA apart from other museums is its commitment to engaging with visitors on a deeper level. The museum offers a wide range of educational programs for people of all ages, including lectures, workshops, and tours led by knowledgeable guides.

Another unique aspect of LACMA is its location in Los Angeles' Miracle Mile neighborhood. This vibrant area is home to numerous other cultural institutions such as The Petersen Automotive Museum and The La Brea Tar Pits & Museum.

Overall, if you're looking for an inspiring cultural experience in Southern California then look no further than LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum Of Art). With its vast collection spanning thousands of years combined with innovative programming designed for visitors young and old alike - it truly has something for everyone!
