Urban Light by Chris Burden - LACMA |
Another installation to stop by outside of LACMA is Urban Light by Chris Burden. According to LACMA, the collection of 202 cast iron street lights once lit the streets of Los Angeles and were all purchased, restored, and painted the same neutral shade of gray by artist Chris Burden. This enables the viewer to take note of the variety of profiles and detailing of the light fixtures. At dusk, the lights are turned on, powered by solar energy.
