Overview
Explore art in Los Angeles through the stories of two artists at different stages of their careers. 28 year-old Levi is the son of Salvadoran immigrants and best known for creating the "Mural Mile," a revitalized strip of Van Nuys Blvd. once covered in graffiti and defaced storefronts. His murals become community art projects. Peter is a 68 year-old award-winning artist who was born in Echo Park – where he still lives and works, creating world-renowned sculpture, furniture and ceramics. He worked on the Design Team for the XXIII Olympiad in L.A., and his public sculptures dot the city's landscape.
