Diego Rivera’s Flower Day (1927) and Raymond Lowey’s Studebaker Avanti automobile (1961) span 34 years and two different kinds of objects. LACMA’s one-hour tour uses seven works in the Pacific Ocean galleries to explore visual and thematic connections across time and geography.
The named examples range from Diego Rivera’s Flower Day to an automobile, rather than staying within one medium or period. That range is a clue to the tour’s approach: visitors are invited to consider how works relate across time and geography.
Flower Day and the Studebaker Avanti are two examples from the seven-work tour, not a complete list of stops or a confirmed route.

The Pacific Ocean galleries are one of four sections in the David Geffen Galleries. LACMA describes a tour that invites visitors to consider visual ideas and themes connecting works from different places and eras, rather than focusing on one period or type of object.
