The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, long seen as an emblem of design on Wilshire Boulevard, is getting a new look.
around the tar pits led to Zumthor’s building losing its artsy inkblot form. Museum and designer retreated from the idea of cantilevering a wing over the principal tar pool. Instead, a 2014 design proposal extended the building south, across Wilshire Boulevard, into a parking lot at South Spaulding Avenue.
Now it has evolved yet again, looking like an antler belonging to Bullwinkle J. Moose, the cartoon ungulate from “The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle.” The pronged structure that begins on LACMA’s main campus claws south, across Wilshire, into the Spaulding Avenue parking lot. If once the building had taken its elegant form from the primordial ooze that bubbles up from the tar pits, it has since seemed to bend over backward to occupy LACMA’s available real estate.
How space will be allotted within the new structure is also unknown; no detailed plans of the building’s interiors have been released.A rendering shows the proposed LACMA building on the right, looking north from Wilshire. The new schematic is smaller than the buildings it would replace.
