In conjunction with Line, Smudge, Shade, Los Angeles–based artist Manuel López will create site-specific monumental wall drawings that will be on view at the Benton through summer 2026. The drawings will depict landscapes and scenes of daily life in East LA. As is common in López’s practice, a title for the work will emerge as the mural nears completion.
