Fires in various parts of Los Angeles, such as the Palisades, Eaton, and Hurst regions, have scorched thousands upon thousands of acres, leading to mandatory evacuations, destruction of homes, businesses, and iconic landmarks. Numerous artists and arts professionals are among those impacted by this disaster; they’ve been keeping their followers informed on social media about the evacuations and damages they’ve suffered.
On Wednesday, a fresh 10-acre blaze ignited close to Runyon Canyon, posing a risk to iconic sites such as the Chinese Theatre, Dolby Theatre, and The Hollywood Bowl. Additionally, due to the Palisades fire, Santa Monica has mandated evacuations for affected regions, as reported by Artnews.
Cultural institutions across the area have faced disruptions due to the fires. The Getty Villa experienced damage to its grounds, however, their staff and collection remain safe. The opening of Alex Israel’s solo exhibition at Gagosian Beverly Hills, initially planned for January 9, has been postponed indefinitely. Previews for two exhibitions at Pepperdine University’s Weisman Museum have been canceled, and the press preview for UCLA’s Fowler Museum’s exhibition “Fire Kinship,” focusing on Indigenous ecological practices, has been moved to January 23.
Starting from January 9, Superchief Gallery is taking action to aid fire relief efforts by gathering essential items such as air purifiers, N95 masks, and clothing. Additionally, they are organizing an art supply drive and a night market on January 11. All donations received will be directly provided to those in need within the affected communities and organizations.
