Synopsis 50 Artists: Highlights of the Broad Collection by : Joanne Heyler
Assembling the voices of cultural leaders and curators, this book shares their insights on some of The Broad collection's most celebrated artists and works For decades, art patrons and philanthropists Eli and Edythe Broad have sought to foster public appreciation of postwar and contemporary art. Before founding The Broad museum in Los Angeles, their collection was made accessible by loaning artworks to institutions around the world through The Broad Art Foundation. Since 1984, more than 8,600 loans from The Broad collection have been made to over 500 museums and galleries. In 2015, The Broad collection found a permanent home when The Broad museum opened on Grand Avenue in downtown Los Angeles in a now iconic building designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro. The Broad's permanent collection boasts works from artists such as John Baldessari, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst, Barbara Kruger, Roy Lichtenstein, Julie Mehretu, Cindy Sherman and Andy Warhol, among others. In this book, writers and curators give an overview of the very best of The Broad's vast collection, including in-depth essays on five works that have come to define the experience of visiting the museum. This book enriches our understanding of The Broad's art and architecture while also provoking, inspiring and fostering appreciation of art of our time.

Synopsis The Broad by : Joanne Heyler
This introduction to Los Angeles’ newest art museum, The Broad, takes readers into the heart of a dramatic, innovative building designed by world-renowned architecture firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro that provides access to one of the world’s great art collections. Built by philanthropists Eli and Edythe Broad, the new museum that bears their name is home to nearly 2,000 works that are among the most prominent holdings of postwar and contemporary art worldwide. With its innovative "veiland-vault" concept, the 120,000-square-foot building will feature two floors of gallery space to showcase The Broad’s comprehensive collections and will be the headquarters of The Broad Art Foundation’s lending library. The book examines The Broad as an architectural landmark and international cultural destination, exploring its history, context, and potential impact on downtown Los Angeles. The volume features eye-popping photographs from Iwan Baan and others that guide readers through the building’s extraordinary design. It also includes an illustrated roundtable discussion, led by the celebrated architectural critic Paul Goldberger, as well as an essay by Aaron Betsky that reflects upon the interactions between architect, collector, and audience. Fans of architecture, design, and modern and contemporary art will have much to appreciate in this beautifully documented exploration of the role architecture has in shaping the museum experience from entry to exit.

Synopsis The Art of Being Unreasonable by : Eli Broad
Unorthodox success principles from a billionaire entrepreneur and philanthropist Eli Broad's embrace of "unreasonable thinking" has helped him build two Fortune 500 companies, amass personal billions, and use his wealth to create a new approach to philanthropy. He has helped to fund scientific research institutes, K-12 education reform, and some of the world's greatest contemporary art museums. By contrast, "reasonable" people come up with all the reasons something new and different can't be done, because, after all, no one else has done it that way. This book shares the "unreasonable" principles—from negotiating to risk-taking, from investing to hiring—that have made Eli Broad such a success. Broad helped to create the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and The Broad, a new museum being built in downtown Los Angeles His investing approach to philanthropy has led to the creation of scientific and medical research centers in the fields of genomic medicine and stem cell research At his alma mater, Michigan State University, he endowed a full-time M.B.A. program, and he and his wife have funded a new contemporary art museum on campus to serve the broader region Eli Broad is the founder of two Fortune 500 companies: KB Home and SunAmerica If you're stuck doing what reasonable people do—and not getting anywhere—let Eli Broad show you how to be unreasonable, and see how far your next endeavor can go.
