Designing Museums
I see that Eli Broad’s gift to the L.A. County Museum of Art has reignited The Times’ carping that the collection of buildings that composes the museum is a “confusing cluster” (editorial, June 28). You people might want to stay away from the Smithsonian in Washington. All those buildings! I mean, where was Rem Koolhaas to help them with one of his multi-zillion-dollar “big-thinking, unifying vision[s]”? Art museums shouldn’t have to be laid out like an IKEA store. Anyone who is too confused on how to find the art at LACMA is probably too stupid to appreciate it anyway.
