Featured in the Los Angeles Times

Artist Hugo Crosthwaite poses before his mural "In Memoriam: Los Angeles" at the Museum of Social Justice in downtown L.A. (Carolina A. Miranda / Los Angeles Times)

In Memoriam: Los Angeles, the mural project we created in partnership with Hugo Crosthwaite Studio and the California Historical Society was featured in the Los Angeles Times.

Yet even with many public murals under his belt, Crosthwaite says working in the Museum of Social Justice space was a singular experience. 'This is the only time I’ve had poets come recite me their poetry,' he says. 'L.A. is a very literary city.'

In Memoriam: Los Angeles and Shattered Mural are up until March 4, 2018. Hugo will be back at the Museum on Wednesday, February 28th through Sunday, March 4th, where he will destroy the mural bit by bit. See it before it disappears.
