If you drive on the 101 Freeway in Los Angeles, you’re bound to see the new 22-foot-tall sculpture of three huge filmstrips made in galvanized steel. The sculpture is part of the U.S. Route 1010 Lankershim to Beaudry Beautification Project which is part of the larger Clean California initiative to beautify state highways.
The new artwork is on a median on 101 south of Melrose Avenue in East Hollywood. It depicts three panels of filmstrips to represent the Hollywood film industry, and set in a wave-like motion to reflect the flow of traffic.
The $5.87 million project included improved landscaped areas around the on-ramps and off-ramps and slopes along 8.7 miles of the 101 between Lankershim Boulevard and North Beaudry Avenue. The landscaping improvements were completed last year, and the filmstrip art sculpture is the last element, according to Colleen Park, Public Information Officer for Caltrans District 7.
