TONIGHT "The Cool School: How Los Angeles Learned to Love Modern Art " screening

Tonight @ MOCA Grand Avenue, free screening of "The Cool School: How Los Angeles Learned to Love Modern Art" at 6:30 pm

The Cool School (2007) focuses on the seminal Ferus Gallery, which groomed the L.A. art scene from a loose band of idealistic beatniks into a coterie of competitive, often brilliant, artists, including Ed Kienholz, Ed Ruscha, Craig Kauffman, Wallace Berman, Ed Moses, and Robert Irwin. The Ferus Gallery also served as a launching point for New York imports such as Andy Warhol, hosting his first Soup Can show. Directed by Morgan Neville, the film stars Irving Blum, Walter Hopps, Ed Ruscha, Frank Gehry, Dennis Hopper, and John Baldessari, and is narrated by Jeff Bridges.
