  1. Los Angeles artists have quite a past

    In the eyes of the art world, Los Angeles is a city of the future. Forever re-creating its art scene with new galleries, updated museums, unconventional outposts and the latest crop of graduates from Southern California schools, L.A. seems to be a place where the only way to look at the arts is forward.<b> &#182; </b>But change is in the wind. More and more writers, curators, filmmakers and historians are digging into the origins and evolution of the cultural landscape. Whether focusing on small slices of Southern California or looking at L.A. in a statewide context, they are turning local art history into a hot topic. &quot;There's an explosion of interest," says Susan Ehrlich, an art historian, independent curator and former West Coast regional collector for the Archives of American Art. "The art schools and artists here are getting a lot of attention, and that leads eyes back to history."<b> &#182; </b>The phenomenon will become abundantly clear in October 2011, when -- in a coordinated effort -- four major institutions will open ambitious exhibitions on chapters of the region's artistic past.<b> &#182; </b>Andrew Perchuk, head of contemporary programs and research at the <a href="http://www.getty.edu/research/">Getty Research Institute</a>, is planning a survey of Southern California painting and sculpture from the late 1940s to the early '70s, to be presented at the J. Paul Getty Museum. Building a case for an alternative to the New York-centric view of contemporary art history, he will focus on Southern California's distinctive approach to Modernism, Minimalism, Conceptualism and feminist art.

  2. Getty Villa opens a rare door with 'Grecian Taste and Roman Spirit: The Society of Dilettanti'

    Sir Humphry Wakefield, 72, on the phone from <a href=&quot;http://www.chillingham-castle.com/">Chillingham Castle in England</a>, was eager to talk about his role as a proud member of the Society of Dilettanti, an exclusive men's club founded in 1734. But first he needed to check on one of the horses, which he thought might have sustained an injury earlier in the day.

  5. The big game is in Olympics merchandising

    THE POP culture petri dish of the Olympic Games has made must-haves out of David Hockney posters (Munich, 1972), plush baby snow owls (Nagano, 1998), blue berets (Salt Lake City, 2002), even wedge haircuts (Innsbruck, 1976). And with the 2008 Summer Games gearing up to be the most merchandise-heavy Olympics in history, there are more candidates for fad stardom than ever before.

  8. Artist Jennifer Bornstein curates a show at the Hammer Museum

    Jennifer Bornstein was a kid in a candy store -- with almost half a year to gorge herself. When Hammer Museum curator Allegra Pesenti asked Bornstein to rummage through the institution's huge collection of graphic work and put together a show of whatever she fancied, the Los Angeles artist was thrilled. Five months later she was exhausted.
