Broad Contemporary Art Museum<br />

(BCAM) at LACMA Now Open!<br />

The Broad Contemporary Art Museum (BCAM) is the centerpiece<br />

of the first phase of a ten-year expansion and renovation project<br />

at the <strong>Los</strong> <strong>Angeles</strong> <strong>County</strong> of Museum of Art (LACMA). Housed<br />

in a new building designed by world-famous architect, Renzo<br />

Piano, the three-story BCAM includes 60,000 square feet of<br />

exhibition space – one of the largest column-free art spaces in<br />

the United States – designed specifically for the display of art from 1945 to the present. Among the prominent<br />

contemporary artists featured in the new exhibition space include Andy Warhol, Barbara Kruger, Jean-Michel<br />

Basquiat, Jeff Koons, Cindy Sherman, and Richard Serra.<br />

Also now open is the BP Grand Entrance, a new 8,100-square-foot glass entrance pavilion in the center or the<br />

campus, with BCAM and LACMA West to one side and the rest of the museum’s galleries – including the<br />

Ahmanson building, Pavilion for Japanese Art, and the Art of the Americas building – to the other. The roof is made<br />

up of solar panels that will generate electricity to power Urban Light, a new outdoor artwork by Chris Burden.
