For the first time in its over four decade history, the
postwar and contemporary art collection assembled by
philanthropists Eli and Edythe Broad will be shown to
the public in its most comprehensive installation when
The Broad opens on Sept. 20. The inaugural installation will feature a sweeping, chronological journey
through its contemporary art collection that has never
before been possible in such depth. Founding Director
Joanne Heyler, who is curating the inaugural installation, has selected more than 250 works—by over 60
artists including Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg,
Ed Ruscha, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Barbara
Kruger, John Baldessari, Cindy Sherman, Mark Bradford, Jeff Koons and Kara Walker— that best represent
the Broad collection’s view of more than a half-century
of contemporary art.
The Broad is a new contemporary art museum founded by philanthropists Eli and Edythe Broad on Grand
Avenue in downtown Los Angeles. The museum, which
is designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro in collaboration with Gensler, will open Sept. 20, 2015, with free
general admission. The museum will be home to the
nearly 2,000 works of art in the Broad collection, which
is among the most prominent holdings of postwar and
contemporary art worldwide. With its innovative “veiland-vault” concept, the 120,000-square-foot, $140-million building will feature two floors of gallery space to
showcase The Broad’s comprehensive collection and
will be the headquarters of The Broad Art Foundation’s worldwide lending library. For more information
