The contemporary art museum, The Broad, recently announced the acquisition of Invisible Sun (algorithm 8, fable form), a recent work by renowned artist Julie Mehretu ’92. The ink-and-acrylic-on-canvas piece is the third work by the New York-artist added to the Broad collection in the last two years. The approximately 10 foot x 14 foot abstract was on display at Art Basel in Switzerland in June. The Broad will open in September on Grand Avenue in downtown Los Angeles. It will be home to one of the world’s leading collections of postwar and contemporary art, more than 2,000 works assembled during the past 40 years by philanthropists Eli and Edythe Broad. In addition to Julie’s Invisible Sun, recent additions to the Broad collection include the works of artists Robert Longo, Goshka Macuga, Takashi Murakami, and Robert Rauschenberg.
