Various Small Fires (Working Documents) brings together artworks and documents from the LACMA archives to tell unusual or overlooked stories of the museum’s first 50 years. Ranging from items that outline a robot roaming the galleries to a Rembrandt painting traveling in disguise to a dog working as a security guard, this exhibit flares up minor, formative, and occasionally incendiary stories that have informed LACMA’s history.
