Chris Burden. Urban Light (2008)
LACMA FIELD TRIP:
MEETING AT LACMA: We will meet at LACMA at the Wilshire Blvd. entrance next to the ticket office and Chris Burden's Urban Light sculpture (shown picture above) at 12:30PM on Saturday, March 4. LACMA will be providing us with free admission to the museum. Please note that free tickets to LACMA are only for students registered in Art 1A. If you bring someone who isn't in Art 1A, then they must purchase their own ticket (this includes other UCSB students, friends, family, roommates etc.).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FROM LACMA: LACMA’s health and safety protocols and processes are implemented for you—our visitors—and our staff and volunteers. An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, senior citizens and anyone with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable.
Masks are strongly recommended indoors for everyone.
Stay home if you are sick or have COVID-19 symptoms. Do not visit LACMA if you or anyone in your party is exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19 as identified by the L.A. County Department of Public Health, which include cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, fever, or chills.
Do not visit LACMA if in the last 10 days you or anyone in your party has been in close contact with or without face mask (within 6 feet for more than 15 minutes or any unprotected contact with bodily fluids/secretions) with someone who has COVID-19 or COVID-19 symptoms during the 10 days prior to your scheduled visit to LACMA, or if you or anyone in your party are currently under isolation or quarantine orders.

If you cannot go to LACMA, then you need to go to The Art, Design & Architecture Museum at UC Santa Barbara Exhibition: Sandy Rodriguez — Unfolding Histories: 200 Years of Resistance.
Nota Bene: The museum trip is all-day immersive experience, and therefore the museum field trip is in lieu of both of the Art 1A lectures that week (section attendance is as scheduled). If you do not go to the museum that week, or the alternative assignment, then you will receive two absences. Take a selfie at the museum, and works of art that were of interest to you, and include it in your paper as proof of attendance.
