LACMA launches playlist for David Geffen Galleries

digital · 2026-07-28

LACMA has unveiled Currents: A Soundtrack for the David Geffen Galleries, a custom playlist curated by KCRW Music Director Alejandro Cohen. The playlist includes a special edit of Brian Eno and Beatie Wolfe's composition 'Big Empty Landscape' and is designed to be experienced at the Zumthor-designed bench. Reflecting Los Angeles's open and layered character, the playlist spans genres and eras. It is available on Bloomberg Connects and KCRW's website. The David Geffen Galleries, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Peter Zumthor, lack a single prescribed entrance, and the playlist honors that fluidity.
