La Jolla Light

During his visit to La Jolla last summer to give an art lecture at UC San Diego, multi-media artist Kota Ezawa visited the Salk Institute and was struck by the Louis Kahn-designed architecture. “It left an impression on me,” he said.
Just over a year after that visit, Ezawa’s La Jolla-inspired work can be seen as the latest in the Murals of La Jolla public art program. His piece, “Once Upon a Time in the West,” went up at 7905 Herschel Ave. over the weekend on the Citibank Building. It replaces “at sea” by Ann Hamilton.
