Doug Aitken's Lightscape

Walt Disney Concert Hall

Lightscape is an innovative multimedia artwork created by the artist Doug Aitken in collaboration with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Master Chorale. It’s a modern mythology propelled by music that asks the questions, “where are we now?” and “where are we going?” Lightscape is a shapeshifting act of contemporary storytelling that unfolds in various stages: a feature-length film, a multi-screen fine art installation, and a series of live musical performances.

The world premiere of the concert iteration of Lightscape caps off the LA Phil’s daylong Noon to Midnight: Field Recordings festival, with Grant Gershon leading the LA Phil New Music Group and the Los Angeles Master Chorale in a hypnotic series of original soundscapes and minimalist compositions to accompany Doug Aitken’s vivid moving images.

Following its concert premiere, Lightscape migrates to the Marciano Art Foundation in the form of a multi-screen art exhibition running from December 17, 2024 through March 15, 2025 with weekly live music activations curated by the LA Phil, the Los Angeles Master Chorale, and Doug Aitken.

Lightscape is a multi-disciplinary collaboration between Doug Aitken, the Los Angeles Master Chorale, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The project is generously supported by the Marciano Art Foundation; Birdrib Productions; Maria Seferian; and the Hillenburg Family. Additional support is provided by the Arison Arts Foundation; Joni* and Miles Benickes; Peter and Elizabeth Goulds, L.A. Louver; and Ron and Pamela Mass.
