Van Gogh’s exuberant ‘Tarascon Stagecoach’ will be donated to a Los Angeles museum

The Henry and Rose Pearlman Foundation is donating 63 works to three major U.S. museums, led by Vincent van Gogh's *Tarascon Stagecoach* (October 1888). The painting will debut at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) from February 22 to July 5, 2026, then travel to the Brooklyn Museum of Art in autumn 2026 and New York's Museum of Modern Art in 2027. The work depicts a horse-drawn coach in Arles, was sketched in a letter to Van Gogh's brother Theo, and has a rich provenance including early ownership by sculptor Medardo Rosso and a journey to Uruguay as the first Van Gogh in the Americas.

Alfonso Gonzalez Jr. Gives New Context to Street Art and Commercial Signage in New LACMA Show

Alfonso Gonzalez Jr., a second-generation Los Angeles artist with roots in graffiti, sign painting, and muralism, has opened his first museum exhibition at LACMA. Titled “In Between Stops,” the show features 12 benches installed along the museum’s Kendall Concourse, each serving as a functional sculpture that honors the street art and vernacular signage of LA. Gonzalez Jr., who learned the sign-painting trade at Los Angeles Trade Tech College and worked for outdoor advertisement companies like Wall Dogs and Colossal Media, draws on his background to create fictitious ads that critique advertising tactics while preserving rapidly disappearing elements of LA culture, such as mom-and-pop shops and barber shops.
