The Los Angeles County Museum of Art will honor artist Betye Saar and filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón at its 2019 Art + Film Gala, the museum announced on Wednesday.
. The fundraising campaign is currently at $560 million. LACMA is aiming to break ground in early 2020.
“Born in Los Angeles and having sustained a career over seven decades here,” he added in the statement, “Saar has only begun to receive the international acclaim her work deserves.” Cuarón, Govan said, “tells beautiful and stirring stories of humanity and how we relate to one another, from his early films ‘The Little Princess’ and ‘Y Tu Mamá También’ to his recent work including ‘Gravity’ and last year’s ‘Roma,’ which was as personal as it was universal.”
