Spend some time this weekend exploring recently opened exhibitions—we have everything from fashion in menswear to a sublime retrospective of Agnes Martin to Robert Mapplethorpe's body of work.
Eric Reed comes to campus for Jazz at LACMA on Friday evening. Pianist Eric Reed has been a leader of many ensembles, as well as a solo performer, composer, producer, educator, and sideman. Reed's aesthetic scope navigates diverse terrain with intense focus and sagely concision. The performance begins at 6 pm in the BP Grand Entrance.
Sundays Live brings chamber ensembles from the Young Musicians Foundation to the Bing Theater.
