Happenings!

A first for the Getty Center! Over our ten years we have had almost every conceivable type of organized visiting group: presidents, royals, people with seeing-eye dogs, students, architects, etc. But this Saturday we had a hundreds-long conga line that snaked through in follow-the-leader style.

Agents from Improv Everywhere completed the following mission last Saturday:

“Los Angeles, CA. Form a line, introduce a ripple effect of various actions, and then tighten into a spiral as designated by the lead Agent.”

Unsuspecting spectators seemed enthralled, if puzzled. Was this a happening that had escaped from MoCA? Was it a Work of Art?

Next Saturday we’ll see another group assembling here–and we hope to post some of the resulting photos. Stay tuned.
