Tote Bag "The Great Wall of Los Angeles"

A canvas tote bag featuring the Torch Bearer from the Great Wall of Los Angeles, created by artist Judith F. Baca and the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC).

Tote bag measures 15" tall x 14" and has no gusset.  Screen printed on canvas.

In 1974, Baca conceived of the Great Wall as a monument to the people of California, featuring a visual history of ethnic peoples from prehistoric times to the 1950s. Soon after, Baca co-founded the Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC) and became its artistic director. The Great Wall was SPARC’s first public art project which was completed over five summers and employed 400 young people and their families from diverse social and economic backgrounds working with artists, oral historians, ethnologists, scholars, and hundreds of community members to paint the mural on the walls of the LA River.
