Join The Broad after hours for L.A. Intersections, a two-part festival-style series celebrating organic music and spoken word scenes that have emerged in LA including punk, jazz, rap, noise, & the culturally infused experimentation led by a new generation of Filipinx artists.
The Broad has gathered iconic performers who shaped LA culture through The Desolation Center events, which inspired Burning Man, Lollapalooza, and Coachella;
The World Stage, which has kept the language of jazz thriving for generations of musical and literary artists in South LA; The Good Life Cafe, which became synonymous for community within our grassroots hip hop and rap scenes; & Cathay De Grande and Raji’s, the city’s raucous punk clubs.
Added to this eclectic mix are Filipinx artists whose contributions to the performance landscape of Southern CA over the past decade look at spectacle and experimentation through an indigenous lens by exploring the relationships between settler colonialism, migration, and the Filipinx diaspora.
L.A. Intersections presents the musicians, writers, and movement artists who have helped position Los Angeles at the vanguard of cutting-edge culture.
Live music by Myka 9 and Aceyalone of Freestyle Fellowship, Carlos Niño & Friends featuring Idris Ackamoor and Nate Mercereau, Pedestrian Deposit, and Zulu; readings by Keith Morris (Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Off!) & Mike Watt (Minutemen); a slideshow of punk queen Pleasant Gehman’s club flyers and pages from her Lobotomy Fanzine, and a vocal performance by Micaela Tobin AKA White Boy Scream in the galleries.
Tickets include access to Desire, Knowledge, and Hope (with Smog) and The Broad's third floor galleries during the event.

The Broad is pleased to announce Desire, Knowledge, and Hope (with Smog), an exhibition drawn entirely from the Broad collection, showcasing works by LA-based artists.
Drawing its title from a John Baldessari work, the exhibition includes reflections on L.A. as a city in flux, and on societal issues that extend far beyond it.
Running from November 18th 2023 to April 7th 2024, the exhibition includes the work of 21 artists across varying generations who were raised in the Los Angeles area, such as Doug Aitken and Lari Pittman, or relocated to the city, including Catherine Opie and Mike Kelley.
The exhibition will feature several artists new to The Broad collection, including Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Sayre Gomez, and Joe Ray.
It provides visitors the opportunity to discover how the museum’s collection continues to evolve, welcoming new voices and supporting some of the most ambitious artists working in Los Angeles.

REGARDING WEEDS – A Conversation between Artist / Architect Gitte Juul and Hugo Hopping
Danish architect Gitte Juul and Hugo Hopping discuss some of the exhibitions that took place at InstantHerlev Institute over a ten year period. They will begin with Gitte Juul’s (IG: @juulgitte) project of 2011, FRONTGARDENKITCHEN. This was an outdoor installation where Juul planted weeds, flower and edible plants, in the front garden at InstantHerlev. As part of the project she invited the audience to pick their own plants and make salads from these plants that she had cultivated on site, and participate in an alfresco dining experience. The weeds and plants were later covered up with Asphalt. This will develop into a conversation about The Winter Office’s exhibition ‘By Invitation Only’ from 2014, where the group broke through the asphalt, to foster the growing of the weeds hidden underneath. At the request of the group, Anja Franke (IG: @anjafrankehedegaard/), Artist and Director of InstantHerlev institute, photographed the weeds, and it was these images which were then used to produce the lithographic prints that have become central artworks for The Winter Office.
About the video. This conversation took place in November 2020 and made for our exhbition contribution and as part of Manifesta 13, Marseille, 2020
