Anselm Kiefer says something like great Art of every age is equally good. The Getty is quite a good place to test that proposition. But you also have to pay attention to what makes it possible to assemble this collection and house it in these buildings on this site overlooking LA.

Mercedes Dorame’s installation ‘Looking Back‘ in the foyer proposes a reversal of view, from Catalina Island and the Tongva towards LA.

‘Alfredo Boulton Looking at Venezuela‘ was beautifully researched and presented.
