title: City of Hope Visitor Services Center, Duarte, 1936

description: City of Hope Visitor Services Center, untitled, Duarte, 1936. Visitor Services Center, interior, City of Hope (originally the Los Angeles Tubercular sanitorium), 1500 East Duarte Road (between Buena Vista Street and then 605 Freeway), Duarte. This T-shaped painting surrounding a doorway includes more than 30 nude and semi-nude figures depicting the sweeping progression of human life. To the left is the energy and hopefulness of youth, while on the right the scenes are of decline and disappointment. Connecting the two sections is a group of figures over the door representing the arts. The mural was in part inspired by Luca Signorelli's fresco series at the Orvieto Cathedral in Italy (1499-1504). The building was originally a library, and then spent many years as the John Howard Grace Graphic Arts Building. In June, 1998, the new Visitor Services Center opened and conservation work on the mural completed by Eduardo P. Sanchez of the J. Paul Getty Museum in collaboration with private conservator Aneta Zebala and her assistant Marissa Kuizenga. Sponsored by Federal Project. Fresco, 163 square feet, by Philip Guston (aka Philip Goldstein) and Reuben Kadish. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, rev. 2nd ed., p. 339, #1.

title: Brooks Street painting, Venice, 1969

description: Brooks Street painting, Venice, 1969. Painted by the Los Angeles Fine Arts Squad included Terry Schoonhaven, Victor Henderson, Leonard Koren, and Jim Frazen. "Sharing a profound distaste for the 'art scene'--i.e., the galleries, the cliques, the politico economics involved in showing works of their art ... they turned to the street and began painting the brick wall outside Terry's studio residence in Brooks Street in Venice. The result was a precise, mirrored reflection in deep perspective on the view down Brooks Street [i.e. Brooks Avenue] which faced the painting. The "mirror image" or "double reality" of Brooks Street is one the two completed L.A.F.A.S. pieces still intac"-- Street paintings of Los Angeles, unpaged, #1-2. According to http://muralconservancy.org/artist/la-fine-arts-squad (viewed on Dec. 2, 2012) the studio was owned by Victor Henderson.

description: Beverly Hills Siddhartha, Los Angeles, 1969-1970. Climax Nightclub, 333 South La Cienega Boulevard, Los Angeles. "The Beverly Hills Siddhartha, the second painting by the Los Angeles Fine Arts Squad, was a work of technical and conceptual brilliance which actually succeeded in the visual obliteration of the Climax Club's bizarre structure. Executed in hyper-realistic billboard style, it depicted the symbolic spiritual development of a young man of wealth through the material world to a point where he sits in a wide desert finally at peace with himself. The work covered 9,000 square feet of curving wallspace [sic], and took one year (1969-1970), $15,000 and 200 gallons of paint, to complete. Long before it was finished, the mural began inviting the attention of passersby and drawing praise from the local art world." -- Environmental Communications, Street paintings of Los Angeles, unpaged, #3-15; http://libx.bsu.edu/cdm4/results.php?CISOBOX1=mural&CISOFIELD1=CISOSEARCHALL&CISOOP1=exact&CISOROOT=all&n=25,5,5,5,5&CISOSORT=title%7Cf&CISOSTART=1,41; http://martinostimemachine.blogspot.com/2012/03/oskos-on-la-cienega.html.

title: Prometheus, Claremont, 1930

description: Prometheus, Claremont, 1930. Frary Dining Hall, interior, Pomona College, North College Way and East 6th Street, Claremont. This was one of the first Mexican murals painted in the United States. It has received international attention, in part because its artist was one of Mexico's three most famous muralists (along with Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros). According to Greek mythology, the god Prometheus gave fire -- with all its dangers and possibilities -- to human kind even though as punishment he was chained to a rock for eternity and every day an eagle ripped his flesh and ate his liver. Fresco, 20' x 28' 6", by Jose Clemente Orozco, assisted by Jorge Crespo de la Serna. Sponsored by Pomona College. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, rev. 2nd ed., p. 343, #1.
