Chicano Time Trip, Los Angeles, 1977
title Chicano Time Trip, Los Angeles, 1977description Chicano time trip, 1977, East West Bank, 2601 North Broadway (at Daly Boulevard), exterior. This was the Streetscapers' first collaborative project (not counting their 3rd grade dinosaur mural). The concept of depicting hundreds of years of Chicano history came in response to the 1976 U.S. Bicentennial, which didn't address the Chicano heritage. The panels read right to left and cover pre-Columbian society, the Spanish conquest and colonialism, Mexican independence and the rise of a new ruling class, the Mexican Revolution and the contemporary Chicano Family. In acrylic on stucco, 5 panels, 20' x 90' by Los Dos Streetscapers (Wayne Healy and David Botello). Sponsored by Citywide Mural Project and Crocker Bank -- Dunitz, Street gallery, rev. 2nd ed., p. 300, #26.contributor Calisphere
