At this conversation about Los Angeles as muse, mirror, and home, artist Guadalupe Rosales—whose new memoir chronicles her Boyle Heights upbringing—will be joined by Carolina Miranda and Pilar Tompkins Rivas, two fellow art world veterans whose work has been equally shaped by the city. Moderated by LACMA curator Rita Gonzalez, they'll reflect on how L.A. has influenced their creative practices, their identities, and the communities they've built. 

This program will take place outdoors on the plaza level of the David Geffen Galleries.
