The Portable Universe / El Universo en tus Manos: Thought and Splendor of Indigenous Colombia

Date: September 27, 2022
Time: 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
Organizer’s Site: lacma.org/art/exhibition/portable-universe

Council District: City Council District 4
Event Series Dates: Through October 2

Comprising approximately 400 works, this exhibition presents the diversity and materiality of ancient Colombian cultures and reframes how we approach ancient Colombian art. With the European conquest, Indigenous cultures and knowledge were disregarded as crude superstition. The Portable Universe is designed to recapture some of that knowledge and to envelop the works with meaning.

All visitors should purchase or reserve an advance timed-entry ticket online.

Adults $20, Seniors $16, Members, Students with valid ID, and Children Free,
LA County residents free weekdays after 3:00 p.m.
