15 Art Shows to See in Los Angeles This Summer

From historical surveys to immersive installations by emerging artists, Los Angeles museums and art institutions offer something for everyone this summer. At the Getty, a Camille Claudel survey aims to refocus attention on her art rather than her turbulent life, while Albrecht Dürer at the Huntington illustrates the influence of Italian art on this German Renaissance master. The LA Public Library is displaying a mural by pioneering Chicano collective East Los Streetscapers for the first time in 25 years, and an exhibition of photographs by J. T. Sata at the Japanese American National Museum highlights the late artist’s modernist innovations.

“Camille Claudel, which traveled from the Art Institute of Chicago to the J. Paul Getty Museum, where it’s on view until July 21,is a significant exhibition. Not only because of the strength of the work on display, but also because it has the potential to change the course of art history.”
