The Broad Museum Guided Tour of Special Exhibit: Jasper Johns: Something Resembling Truth

There are only 10 spots available for this special experience! Join your fellow Cornellians as we explore this special exhibit! We’ll take a 60-minute guided tour with our favorite Broad docent, Deborah, who will highlight the Broad’s Jasper Johns: Something Resembling Truth. This special exhibit is the first full survey of Johns’ work to be shown in Los Angeles in 50 years, and The Broad is the only U.S. venue for this exhibition. The exhibition and tour will encompass the full range of Johns’ materials, motifs and techniques—including his unique use of encaustic (heated beeswax) and found-material collage in paintings—and the innovations he has achieved in sculpture and the graphic arts by expanding the possibilities of traditional media. There are no guarantees, but if the line is not too long, we may be able to view the new addition to Yayoi Kusama’s Infinity Mirrored Room installation: Longing for Eternity. After the tour, guests may stay to tour the rest of the Broad’s exhibits on their own.
