The 1960s — A Generation on Fire: Judy Baca’s Great Wall of Los Angeles

A colorful exhibition poster for “1960s Judy Baca’s Great Wall of Los Angeles.” The upper section has large dark-blue lettering over an abstract background of muted tan, olive, and lime-green shapes. The central illustration shows a woman on the left singing into a microphone and a dark-haired musician on the right playing a large striped brass wind instrument. Behind them are radiating blue and orange bands, swirling paisley forms, floral motifs, a winged figure, and a densely packed outdoor crowd. A dark navy curved section at the bottom contains white text announcing the exhibition and identifying the Skirball Cultural Center.
