Alfonso Gonzalez Jr.In Between Stops

Los Angeles County Museum of Art

Feb 22 – Dec 1, 2026 Miracle Mile

Twelve benches by the Los Angeles sign painter Alfonso Gonzalez Jr., carrying messages in place of bus-stop ads, along the museum’s Kendall Concourse.

A second-generation sign painter, Gonzalez works in rotulismo mexicano, the Mexican tradition of hand-painted signs now pushed aside by digital graphics and city clean-ups. His benches carry personal or political messages, some borrowing from LACMA’s history and collection, and visitors are free to sit on them.
