I must admit, about me, that «modern art» is not well understood. I am, however, open to exploring stuff I don’t understand. The displays were clearly labeled to explain what the creator was trying to say through his art. I was really impressed by the verbiage, less so by the actual piece. An exception was the display of constructed women’s shoes as «wearable architecture» that I could see many facets of art, design, and architecture.
Once you are here you should walk through the neighboring art galleries and definitely have breakfast or lunch at Urth Café, a yuppie-​style café, but great food, it’s always crowded.

I throughly enjoyed going through SHELTER at their new location! Just around the corner from Urth Café and def bigger than their old space. The exhibit itself is cool to look at. It’s basically a bunch of architects redesigning parts of LA to fix the housing and water crisis happening. I would go again for any new exhibits.

Long overdue in a city with architecture as iconic as Los Angeles’. I was at the opening for their current exhibition, SHELTER, which imagines the effects of drought and an ever-​increasing population on LA’s architectural landscape. Fascinating exhibition and a great party! Definitely do not miss their next opening, or stop by and check out the current exhibit!

Out with the old in with the new
Gentrification at its best. A torn down rusty neighborhood full of empty and warehouses is getting a new facelift. With an amazing architecture school (SCI-​Arc) across the street and many great restaurants surrounding it, the new Architecture + Design Museum is very fitting for where the area is going and the image it projects to the community.
Gensler Designed
The space is simple but fitting that hot shots at Gensler were the ones to design the space meant to house great exhibitions and artwork that will go down in history.
