The Rock Opens at LACMA

July 19, 2012

Mayor Villaraigosa, the artist and Terry Semel begin their inaugural walk down through the latest installation at LACMA. This installation has become so controversial. Thought provoking and imaginative, guests to the museum have questioned whether this really qualifies as art? .

The scale and mass of the rock isn't really apparent, as you begin to move through the exhibit.

The scale of Michael Heizer's 340-ton boulder begins to show as you pass underneath. The excitement and anticipation generated by the well-publicized trip from Riverside, eclipsed the coverage the installation received, when it finally opened.
