In 2006, Twitchell’s original 70-foot-tall “Ed Ruscha Monument,” on a building at 1031 S. Hill St., was whitewashed in error by a work crew renovating the structure for a YWCA Job Corps Center.
The new portrait will be updated, showing an appropriately aged Ruscha and installed on the north-facing side of the American Hotel in the Art District.
The mural is sponsored by the All City Mural Endeavor (ACME) a project of Los Angeles Downtown Arts District Space (LADAD Space).
