Description
These records were created and maintained by Steve Lanzarotta during his employment with the Getty Research Institute (GRI)
and its predecessors, the Getty Research Institute for the History of Art and the Humanities and the Getty Center for the
History of Art and the Humanities (GCHAH). The records primarily reflect his work with the GCHAH Administrators Group; the
GCHAH Compensation Advisory Group; and the construction of spaces for both the GCHAH (401 Wilshire Boulevard) and the GRI
(Getty Center in Brentwood). Materials date from 1983 to 2001 and include memos, photographs, brochures, and minutes and agendas
of meetings.
Background
The Getty Research Institute (GRI) is dedicated to the study of the visual arts, approaching the topic from broad historical
and cultural perspectives. The GRI's goals are to promote innovative scholarship in the arts and humanities, to bridge traditional
academic boundaries, and to provide a unique environment for research, critical inquiry, and debate. The GRI is an operating
program of the J. Paul Getty Trust, an international cultural and philanthropic organization serving both general audiences
and specialized professionals. The Trust is a not-for-profit institution, educational in purpose and character, that focuses
on the visual arts in all of their dimensions. As of 2009 the Trust supports and oversees four programs: the J. Paul Getty
Museum; the Getty Foundation; the Getty Conservation Institute; and the Getty Research Institute.
