Fauna Flash and Home Video, Fridays Off The 405 October 20, 2006

free, in the Museum Courtyard

The Getty's Fridays Off the 405 series, with music curated by Flavorpill, heats up as Compost Records' Fauna Flash (Christian Prommer and Roland Appel) bring their genre-bending production to the museum's impromptu dance floor, fusing elements of jazz, dub, latin, Brazilian, hip-hop, and soul. Home Video follow with fresh, delightfully moody Warp Records-inspired electronic pop. The galleries in the West Pavilion, meanwhile, stay open late for Public Faces/Private Spaces: Recent Acquisitions, a survey culled from the Getty's ever-expanding photography collection. Rounding things out are the breathtaking juxtapositions of From Friedrich to Richter, an exhibit featuring new works by contemporary great Gerhard Richter and classics from 19th-century master Caspar David Friedrich.
