  1. Tastemakers

    Urban gentrification—New York’s SoHo is the classic example—tends to follow a pattern: Artists in search of cheap space move into a moribund area, galleries and cognoscenti follow, and soon a once dilapidated district has wide-ranging cachet. This, in a way, was Philbin’s formula when she took over as director of UCLA’s Hammer Museum a decade ago and turned oil baron Armand Hammer’s cold and roundly despised vanity project into the hippest and most dynamic cultural institution in town. “We defined our primary audience as artists,” she says. “If you can capture their attention, everyone else comes along.”

  4. Appleton Museum is a hidden gem in Ocala

    Postcards from Florida» Orlando Sentinel – Postcards from Florida
    Ocala is famous for the picturesque horse farms that have made it a world-class equestrian hub, but it was a less heralded gem that inspired my recent Marion County road trip. Nestled into an unlikely strip of businesses and tourist attractions such as...

  7. Osteria Mozza: Be very hungry

    THE white marble counter top veined in gray is cool to the touch. I take a sip of Vermentino, enjoying its delicate minerality, and look over the menu at <a href=&quot;http://theguide.latimes.com/restaurants/osteria-mozza-venue">Osteria Mozza</a>, which might be the hardest reservation in town right now. But for me, the best seat in the house has to be one in the middle of the room at the L-shaped "mozzarella bar, " where you can't even make a reservation -- it's first come, first served.

  11. Colony in Pacific Palisades nurtured top artists in 1950s, 1960s

In the case of L.A.'s Museum of Contemporary Art, there will be fewer exhibitions to support new work just when we need creative thinking.
