题目内容:
Los Angeles is more than just sunshine, sea, and Hollywood stars. It happens to have a world-class art scene, as major museums exhibit masterpieces that you've probably seen prints of in suburban houses and urban loft apartments. Here are the best art museums in Los Angeles.
▪The Broad
One of LA’s newest art museums, The Broad is the collection of Eli and Edythe Broad. The 2,000-strong collection of paintings and sculptures were all created after World War II and artists represented here include Andy Warhol, Barbara Kruger, and Cindy Sherman. Be sure to build in some time to wait in line to get the chance to be surprised at Yayoi Kusama's amazing mirror rooms. Located in Downtown LA, the museum is free of charge for visitors.
221 S. Grand St. , Los Angeles
▪Getty Center
The Getty, as locals call it, got the art worlds ( and everyone else's) attention when the institution opened up a white, hilltop museum designed by Richard Meier in 1997. Visitors access it via railway and then can explore the campus, taking in the views of the Pacific Ocean on one side and Downtown LA on the other. The collection isn't as strong as other top art institutions in LA but works by Van Gogh, Titian, and Renoir should please the art lover.
