Next to the Auditorium lies the North Building that houses the Getty Information Institute and Getty Trust Administration. Which is to say that the G.I.I. is to Picasso what Sally's Place is to Wolfgang Puck. Clockwise from the North Building is the East Building. Here, the Getty Conservation Institute, Education Institute for the Arts, and Grant Program go about their business. The art is arranged chronologically, starting in the North and ending in the West.
Visitors can choose to walk through the galleries in order.
Or, they can meander through the galleries and Museum Courtyard, following whims and urges. Here is where you will find all the Greek and Roman art that will ultimately reside in the Getty Villa in Malibu. There are a number of amenities provided to make your visit both more enjoyable and more educational. In the Entrance Hall, just up from the Tram and Arrival Plaza, there is a coat check, the Getty Bookstore, the Orientation Theater, and the Audioguide Desk. Numerous publications are also available.
