Two L.A. Artworks Destroyed In Pompidou Show

“The world-renowned Pompidou Center of Paris, which set out in March to celebrate the work of Los Angeles artists, has accidentally destroyed two of their works — which fell from museum walls. A third piece was slightly damaged. The incidents, all of which occurred during the March-to-July run of ‘Los Angeles 1955-1985,’ have experts wondering whether a major museum has ever done so much damage in the course of a single show.”
