To the editor: Allow us to now reward Michael Govan, the director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Artwork.

Since arriving in 2006, Govan has overseen the transformation of the 20-acre campus into an thrilling and ever-evolving oasis of artwork and tradition in the course of a metropolis with no actual middle — till now. Not too long ago, LACMA hosted a sneak peek of its eye-popping new addition, the David Geffen Galleries, over three superb days. After a troublesome 12 months, it was nice to see 1000’s of Southern California residents come collectively to have a good time this thrilling new landmark.

However you’d hardly bear in mind that such a particular occasion occurred or of LACMA’s elevated profile through the years due to Govan’s management and fundraising prowess by following artwork critic Christopher Knight’s protection (“The brand new LACMA is modern, splotchy, highly effective, jarring, monotonous, interesting and absurd,” June 27). His articles are crammed with extra grievances than a Donald Trump stump speech.

Knight states that the constructing’s value is pegged at $720 million however sources have instructed him “the complete challenge value is nearer to $835 million.” This, I don’t doubt. Ever try a kitchen rework? Strive constructing an elevated 347,500-square-foot construction in an earthquake zone, amid historical tar pits crammed with treasured fossils, throughout a pandemic.

“The limitless concrete is monotonous,” Knight complains of the brand new galleries. Aren’t white partitions additionally monotonous till you cling some artwork on them? He worries the museum has been present process a “prolonged transformation from a civic artwork establishment right into a vacationer vacation spot.” Can’t or not it’s each?

I perceive that Knight doesn’t just like the “non-hierarchical” design of the single-story museum. We will all conform to disagree on such issues. I simply don’t suppose it’s essential to vilify LACMA in each article he writes to make a degree.

Lastly, Knight writes, “Will the Geffen Galleries achieve success? My crystal ball is damaged, however I see no motive why it gained’t be a preferred attraction.” I don’t have a crystal ball both, however I can inform you LACMA has been a preferred vacation spot for years and little question will proceed to be so.
