This is page 3 of your self-guided public art walk in downtown Los
Angeles continues down Hope Street near Third in the Bunker Hill
neighborhood.
This
sculpture entitled "Ulysses" is the
work of noted photographer Alexander Liberman.
He was one of several non-sculptors who were commissioned
to create works outside their traditional field of art.
Another artist
who worked primarily in land/earth sculptures was
commissioned to create this one in the Citigroup
Plaza.
Down a few steps to the
right of this work is a "dance performance
platform" by Robert Rauchenberg.
At the top of
these stairs is a reflecting pool and at the center stands
yet another female figure by Robert Graham.
Descend the stairs and
cross the street to the Los Angeles Main Public Library.
Stairs and
water are the themes of this part of the Bunker Hill
walking tour. This reflecting pool is one of
several on the west side of the Public Library.
There are several other pieces of art in this garden
area. Be sure to note what is written on the
stairs.
The Downtown Los Angeles public art walk
starts
here.
