A Getty-led coalition of Los Angeles art institutions and philanthropists have organized a LA Arts Community Fire Relief Fund for "providing emergency relief for artists and arts workers in all disciplines who have lost residences, studios, archives, artworks, or livelihoods." Affected artists and arts workers can apply for grants at the Center for Cultural Innovation site starting Monday Jan. 20.
Even if the Getty museums are fine, insurers are predicting extensive art loss. I’m very curious which, if any, masterpieces were lost. Imagine if David Geffen hadn’t sold. His former home burned down in the fires.
