LACMA Art + Film Gala 2015
Art is defined as “the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance.” Film is a genre of art that is the compilation of skills, techniques, vision and loving labor in order to entertain and excite audiences the world over. Throughout history the flavor as well as vibe of art has not stayed the same but has changed to reflect the spirit of the times. For instance, the art designed during the Renaissance differs from crafts created in art periods such as: Art Nouveau, Baroque, Romanticism, Gothic, Surrealism and Egyptian.
Therefore, we could not assume that throughout time that film would remain the same as well. We have seen advancements in film in a very short amount of time from silent films to spectacular CGI masterpieces. It is clear that art and film truly do cross paths and go hand in hand.
In recognition of this simple fact this past Saturday a gala was held by Gucci and Los Angeles museum LACMA to honor artist James Turrell and filmmaker Alejandro G. Inaartu. Proceeds from the gala go towards making film a more central aspect of the museum’s curatorial programming. This in turn would help to provide more acquisitions, education and exhibitions showcasing the relation between art and film.
The event was presented by actor Leonardo Dicaprio and LACMA trustee Eva Chow and included much celebrity fanfare. Stars from film, fashion, art and music industries collided to lend their support and pay homage to the night’s honorees.
