March to the museum this last weekend of the month for the opening of Helen Pashgian: Light Invisible. Since the 1960s, contemporary Los Angeles sculptor Helen Pashgian has experimented with light and space and now, in her first large-scale sculptural installation, Pashgian has created an immersive meditation on the nature of material and light. Helen Pashgian: Light Invisible opens to the public on Sunday; LACMA members see it first during Member Preview Days on Friday and Saturday.

Also debuting this weekend on Saturday, The Painted City: Art from Teotihuacan looks at painted ceramics from the ancient Mesoamerican metropolis of Teotihuacan, a prosperous city that grew to be the sixth largest in the world during the fifth century and a regional hub for artists and merchants. Gain insight into the city’s artistic tradition through the pictorial writing system that adorned the city.

The Least Important Things, a performance from L.A.-based artist Emily Mast, continues on Friday and Saturday. This procession of theatrical vignettes will occur throughout campus and feature “stage poetry” from Joan Brossa, exploring topics of incoherence, the quotidian, and popular entertainment. This performance series is free to the public.
