Great Wall Of Los Angeles: Detail: Charlie Chaplin
title Great Wall Of Los Angeles: Detail: Charlie Chaplindescription A collaborative project by Judith Baca and over 400 employed youths and artists. The 1978 project continues where the first 1000 feet left off. From this point forward, Baca exerted more control over the design, which resulted in more stylistic unity and an evolving complexity in the transitions between the sections and linkages between historical incidents. As World War I reached into every aspect a American life, Charlie Chaplin, the famous silent movie comedian and a symbol of the common man, became involved in the national campaign. He is represented in the mural as a typical "dough boy" fighting in the trenches for the ideals in which he believes and for which the war was being fought.
