Muralism
Description
An account of the resource
Southern California is home to a rich history of muralism. These public works claim space, preserve and reclaim a history that is excluded and distorted within the dominant narrative, and assert a sense of identity and pride within marginalized communities. By being public facing, however, murals are vulnerable to natural and social deleterious forces. Age and weathering take their toll, while preservation and restoration efforts are often incomplete and selectively funded. More direct erasure of murals in the form of whitewashing and censorship have roots that tie back to the beginnings of the muralism movement in greater Los Angeles.
This collection focuses on murals in El Monte and South El Monte from the 1970s as well as more recent murals by the South El Monte Arts Posse.

Muralism
Description
An account of the resource
Southern California is home to a rich history of muralism. These public works claim space, preserve and reclaim a history that is excluded and distorted within the dominant narrative, and assert a sense of identity and pride within marginalized communities. By being public facing, however, murals are vulnerable to natural and social deleterious forces. Age and weathering take their toll, while preservation and restoration efforts are often incomplete and selectively funded. More direct erasure of murals in the form of whitewashing and censorship have roots that tie back to the beginnings of the muralism movement in greater Los Angeles.
This collection focuses on murals in El Monte and South El Monte from the 1970s as well as more recent murals by the South El Monte Arts Posse.
