Every year, one of the most recognizable public art installations gets transformed into a red carpet for the LACMA Art+Film Gala. Located outside of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the collection of oversized street lamps known as Urban Light by Chris Burden has seen the likes of Kim Kardashian, Greta Lee, and Emily Ratajkowski, all dressed up in designer gowns and custom ensembles. And this year was no different.
Tonight, the worlds of art, fashion, and entertainment alike flocked to California for the 14th annual event, co-chaired once again by Leonardo DiCaprio and trustee Eva Chow. Since its foundation back in 2011, the star-studded fundraiser has supported the museum’s initiative to broaden their film programming—including exhibitions, acquisitions, screenings, and education.
Honoring visual artist Mary Corse and filmmaker Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Sinners), this year’s edition saw the likes of Alex Consani, Emma Roberts, and Rina Sawayama walk the red carpet in show-stopping looks. For the occasion, Elle Fanning pulled out a baby blue fur coat and matching gown, Justine Lupe went bold with red, and Claudia Sulewski and Finneas made the evening a date night. And, given that the event was sponsored by Gucci, many additional familiar faces took the opportunity to get dressed up in looks from the Italian house.
Past honorees of the gala have included artists such as Barbara Kruger and David Hockney, as well as filmmakers such as Baz Luhrmann, Steven Spielberg, Guillermo del Toro, Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, Stanley Kubrick, and Clint Eastwood.
