Judith F. BacaA People’s Legacy: Public Memory, Social Justice and the Great Wall of Los Angeles
Social and Public Art Resource Center
From Mar 19, 2026 Venice
A survey of Judith F. Baca’s career and the making of her mural The Great Wall of Los Angeles.
The exhibition traces Baca’s path from teaching and youth counseling in Los Angeles to her community-based model of mural-making, built on collaboration, historical research and collective storytelling. It centers on The Great Wall of Los Angeles, painted along the Tujunga Wash flood channel with hundreds of youth, artists and historians.
It also looks at her training at the Taller Siqueiros in Cuernavaca, where she learned the collective composition methods of David Alfaro Siqueiros.
