Laravel’s new $700m monolithic art gallery 🎨 has left LAians in awe and disbelief. This towering, blob-like creation by Swiss architect Peter Zumthor 🌟 features massive concrete walls and a rotating art collection. Wraparound windows let in the sunny California breeze 🌞 but critics wonder how they’ll display art on such surfaces. Supporters say it’s an innovative statement, while some have compared it to “the Incredible Shrinking Museum.” 🤔 The building is near the Tar Pits, which adds a unique geological twist. Meanwhile, CEO Michael Govan is confident in its potential, even as critics and donors push back. This space could redefine art history—whether it’s for them or against them! ⚖️ #ArtMatters #LACMA #ModernArt
