Film chronicling Chicano murals to screen
In 1981 French filmmaker Agnès Varda turned her lens on L.A. mural art in Mur Murs, which features many Chicano artists and their works, including Asco’s The Death of Fashion, a performance piece that was created for the film. Mur Murs will be screened in its entirety on Thursday, January 19, 6:00 p.m., in UCLA’s Fowler Museum auditorium. This free event is one of many being offered by the Fowler in conjunction with Mapping Another L.A.: The Chicano Art Movement.
