Hooray for Hollywood

April 2014

My Art Study Club assignment for the year was to present the life and artwork of Gilbert "Magu" Lujan - an influential Chicano sculptor, muralist and painter.  Arguably his most famous commission was designing the Hollywood & Vine Metro Rail Station with a series of wall tiles and platform sculptural benches.  He chose the theme song, "Hooray for Hollywood" as the signature tune for the station.  Fabulous.
