“Made in California” exhibition
Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, California, 2000
Description
The process for developing this sprawling exhibition—the largest ever mounted by LACMA— was to understand the design as an interface that presents, translates and organizes the works and the galleries into a functioning information space. At all levels of this comprehensive design the form emerges from the imperatives of both displaying and contributing to the understanding of the art and ephemeral objects in the exhibition. This conceptual approach is played out in the fabric structure that relines the interior of the plaza, the layered and interactive timelines, the suspended structures at entrances to each section, the shifting wall-objects, the stackable benches and cases, and the wayfinding and exhibition graphics.
