Getty 25 Celebrates Watts
Saturday, August 27 and Sunday, August 28 from 11am-6pm
This is the last festival of ten free, outdoor community art festivals across Los Angeles this summer in celebration of the Getty Center’s 25th anniversary.
Join the Watts Labor Community Action Committee (WLCAC) to
celebrate Watts at WLCAC’s historic urban arts healing center. Interact
with artists, performers, artisans, and chefs, enjoy traditional foods,
and discover Watts
Towers–inspired mosaics and assemblage art. Revel in the sounds of
Afro-Cuban rhythms, hip-hop, salsa, drum circles, spoken word/poetry,
jazz, reggaeton, and soul. Enjoy hands-on art workshops, live music and
performances, an immersive digital experience of
Getty collections, photo booths, and giveaways.
Off the 405: Standing on the Corner
Saturday, August 27 from 6-9pm
The Getty Center
This is this
summer’s last Off the 405 concert at the Getty Center. Standing on the
Corner often calls itself an “art ensemble,” a moniker which helps
outline its approach to music and performance, while hinting
at its creative roots and perspective. With composer, conductor and
co-founder Gio Escobar at the center of a band line-up that’s seldom the
same for consecutive performances, each of which might feature a
radically different concept and repertoire, SOTC moves
freely yet decisively between jazz improvisations, dub excursions,
garage-noise freak-outs, and lo-fi hip-hop collage.
Special Screening: The Thief Collector
Sunday, August 28 at 2pm
In 1985, Willem de
Kooning’s Woman-Ochre, one of the most valuable paintings of the 20th
century, vanished after being cut from its frame at the University of
Arizona Museum of Art. Over 30 years later, the
$160 million painting was found hanging in the home of Jerry and Rita
Alter in rural New Mexico. The Thief Collector takes a deep look
at how, and why, this mild-mannered couple pulled off one of the
greatest art heists of a generation. After the screening
the film's director, Allison Otto, joins Getty conservators for a
conversation and audience Q&A. The program is followed by an outdoor
hosted reception. This event complements the Getty exhibition Conserving
de Kooning: Theft and Recovery closing on August 28.
