all day: Art

The first full-scale retrospective devoted to the late New York School painter Lee Krasner premieres Sunday at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Organized by Independent Curators International, the survey will trace the artist’s development from an early self-portrait to her later paintings and collages. Although Krasner has long been overshadowed by her famous husband, Jackson Pollock, this exhibition examines her importance as a painter in her own right.

all day: Movies

The New Beverly Cinema will screen a Humphrey Bogart double bill that features two of Bogie’s most famous detective roles: Dashiell Hammett’s Sam Spade in John Huston’s 1941 directorial debut “The Maltese Falcon,” and Raymond Chandler’s Philip Marlowe in Howard Hawks’ 1945 “The Big Sleep.” The cinema will screen a version of “The Big Sleep” shown to U.S. troops before the film’s public release.
