The Music Center continues its long standing relationship with GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA by using GMM once again to produce and install city light pole banners celebrating The Music Center’s 50th anniversary year.  The Music Center is one of the largest and most highly regarded performing arts centers in the country.  For 50 years, The Music Center has served as a cultural hub that is central to Los Angeles’ status as “the creative capital” of the world.  It is home to four world-class resident companies—Center Theatre Group, LA Opera, LA Phil, and the Los Angeles Master Chorale.

The Natural History Museum is pleased to host the U.S. debut of the extraordinary traveling exhibition Grandes Maestros: Great Masters of Iberoamerican Folk Art, Collection of Fomento Cultural Banamex.  GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA is pleased to provide and install city light pole banners reflecting this important cultural exhibit. Grandes Maestros brings together hundreds of folk art masters from across 22 countries to showcase modern culture, religion, and traditions through a celebration of beauty and power. Crafted by the best living artisans in the world, these more than 1,200 pieces tell the modern day stories of communities across Mexico, Central and South America, Spain, and Portugal.  The exhibit runs through September 13, 2015.

The Annenberg Space for Photography hosts Sink or Swim: Designing for a Sea Change, on view from until May 3, 2015.  Sink or Swim explores the human story of resilience, from adaptation for survival to ambitious infrastructure planning, in some of the richest and poorest of the world’s coastal communities. Rather than showing pristine architectural photography, the photographs present viewers with various human responses to changes in their landscapes due to sea level rise.  Sink or Swim aims to foster critical dialogue through the provocative juxtaposition of diverse responses to a challenge shared by millions worldwide.  GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA has the privilege of working with The Annenberg to provide light pole banners across the city announcing this thought provoking exhibit.

The GRAMMY Museum is pleased to present The Taylor Swift Experience through May 10, 2015.  Through never-before-seen personal photographs and home videos, interactive experiences, handwritten lyrics of the star’s top-charting hits, and iconic costumes, this one-of-a-kind exhibit gives visitors and fans an in-depth look at the multi-platinum selling artist as a singer, musician, songwriter, entrepreneur, and style icon.  GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA is pleased to provide one-of-a-kind city light pole banners to The GRAMMY Museum and The Taylor Swift Experience.

New York comes to Los Angeles with Nature and the American Vision: The Hudson River School now on exhibit at LACMA through June 7, 2015.  Drawn entirely from the premier collection of The New York Historical Society, this exhibit features forty-five outstanding American landscape paintings from the nineteenth-century. Among the artists represented in the exhibition are the heroes of the American landscape movement: Thomas Cole, Asher B. Durand, and Albert Bierstadt, among others. Also included are lesser-known artists, some of whom helped the American landscape achieve recognition through the new democratic medium of prints and portfolios.  GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA continues its relationship with LACMA by providing light pole banners across Los Angeles for this extraordinary exhibit.

First in the Figaro Trilogy, LA Opera proudly presents the first full-scale production in this century of John Corigliano’s grand opera buffa, one of the most acclaimed operas of our time. Extravagantly scaled, gloriously tuneful, supremely touching and yet uproariously entertaining, The Ghosts of Versailles turns history on its head as love attempts to alter the course of destiny. GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA provided the extravagant, glorious, and supremely beautiful light pole banners for this exceptional engagement ending March 1, 2015 as well as the other two engagements in this trilogy.

Dashing Count Almaviva has lost his heart to the spunky Rosina, whose doddering guardian is determined to marry her himself. It’s Figaro to the rescue, as the resourceful barber conjures up wacky schemes and strategies to unite the young lovers.  So goes the enduring story of The Barber of Seville part two of the Figaro Trilogy at the LA Opera through March 22, 2015.

“It’s the end of an era,” cries the London Daily Telegraph, but Barry Humphries and his most famous creation Dame Edna Everage aren’t going out with a whimper. They’re going out with a rapid-fire explosion of convulsive laughter and cheers!  Dame Edna takes her final bow at The Ahmanson Theatre in Dame Edna’s Glorious Goodbye.  You dare not miss the spectacular side-splitting historic finale of Barry Humphries and global gigastar, Dame Edna Everage celebrating a 50-year career of sold-out venues, command performances for the Royal Family, television specials and around-the-world tours.  GOLD METROPOLITAN MEDIA is saying goodbye by alerting the city of Los Angeles of this final engagement through city light pole banners citywide.  Thanks CENTER THEATRE GROUP for once again entrusting GMM with this mega responsibility.
