Скачать или смотреть Mapping Grand Avenue

Join us for a lively conversation about L.A.’s many downtowns—past, present and future—and the rise of the Grand Avenue arts corridor in particular. Organized in conjunction with Mapping an Art World: Los Angeles in the 1970s-80s, an exhibition of works from MOCA’s permanent collection currently on view, the panel will look back at the history of Bunker Hill and its emergence as a cultural center, including architect Arata Isozaki’s design for MOCA’s Grand Avenue venue, and forward to consider emerging models for housing, work, culture, planning, and mobility in and around downtown. It will examine Grand Avenue, and the redevelopment funds that helped create it, as a complex case study in urban development, as opposed to the more organic emergence of gallery and performance hubs elsewhere in downtown.

Participating panelists: Sharon Johnston, Mark Lee, Shana Bonstin, and Michael Maltzan
Moderator: Christopher Hawthorne
