Across Wilshire, an
art installation will
commemorate the
1989 events in Berlin.
Diane Haithman
In what government and
arts officials are calling the
most ambitious commemoration of the 20th anniversary of
the fall of the Berlin Wall outside of Germany, a symbolic recreation of the wall that once
separated East and West Berlin will be erected across Wilshire Boulevard in November.
The Wall Project, painted by
professional and amateur artists, will close Sunday afternoon traffic on one of the city’s
busiest thoroughfares for three
hours on Nov. 8 beginning at
3 p.m. The project involves the
Culver City’s Wende Museum
and Archive of the Cold War,
the city of Los Angeles, the
German Consulate General in
Los Angeles and other partners, and will be officially announced Thursday.
In a reenactment of the actual events, invited dignitaries
will break down selected portions of the Wilshire wall, which
will be placed directly in front
of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Project leaders
plan a live feed of the events between Los Angeles and Berlin,
official sister cities since 1967.
(Because of the time difference, it will already be Nov. 9 in
Berlin, the day the wall came
down in 1989).
Professional artists who will
participate include “Obama
Hope” muralist Shepard Fairey, L.A. muralist Kent Twitchell and Berlin-based Thierry
Noir, noted for painting his
brightly colored human figures
on the real wall in Berlin.
Twitchell said that he plans to
create portraits of the two
presidents who saw the beginning and the end of the Berlin
Wall, John F. Kennedy and
Ronald Reagan.

RISQUÉ: The teen combined short shorts, boots and a sultry act that left people debating the event days later.
Wholesome teen or edgy adult? Miley Cyrus’ suggestive
performance raises questions about her next move.
BY DAWN C. CHMIELEWSKI >>> Miley Cyrus’ provocative performance during Monday night’s “Teen Choice Awards,” in which she wore short shorts and boots and at one
point straddled a pole, has set off a firestorm on the Internet over whether the act was
appropriate for a 16-year-old entertainer in front of a youthful audience.
On YouTube and on Twitter, followers of the Disney Channel series “Hannah Montana”
debated whether Miley was doing a pole dance on top of a moving ice cream pushcart or
was simply hanging on to the pole for balance. Some found her sultry routine over the top
for the Fox award show, which attracted 4 million viewers — more than a quarter of whom
are under age 18 themselves, according to Nielsen ratings.
Internet gossip columnist Perez Hilton dubbed the performance “the return of Slutty
Cyrus,” and an impromptu Twitter poll attracted more than 4,000 votes — 65% of whom

said she looked like a stripper.

In a move that concedes a
measure of victory to long-term
opponents, the Autry National
Center has bowed out of a protracted battle for a $175-million
expansion of its facility in Griffith Park.
City approval of the plan
hinged on a recent demand for
the Autry to make a legally
binding commitment to support the Southwest Museum,
located in Mount Washington,
as a fully functioning art institution in perpetuity. In a letter
delivered to members of the
Los Angeles City Council Tuesday, the Autry stated that such
a commitment would be irresponsible and that it is withdrawing its proposal.
“Any further attempt to proceed with the proposed expan-
sion project in Griffith Park
would be an ill-advised diversion of our financial resources
and an insupportable distraction from our work in serving
the community,” Autry President John L. Gray states in the
letter. “We come to this decision with reluctance and deep
regret — but the constant delays, the past and future costs,
the unyielding insistence on financial and programmatic
commitments which we cannot
responsibly make, and the
prospect of future expensive
and debilitating litigation all
demand that we fulfill the Autry’s vision under different circumstances.”
Councilman José Huizar,
whose district includes the
Southwest Museum, said the
decision caught him by surprise.
“I was expecting more
rounds of negotiation,” he said.
“It didn’t make sense to me
that there would be a $175-million commitment to the expansion of the Griffith Park site
and that the Autry wouldn’t
want to make a commitment to

DOING IT ALL: B.D. Wong plays 11 disparate characters
in the staging of “Herringbone” at La Jolla Playhouse.
“Herringbone,” now at La
Jolla Playhouse starring a
puckishly versatile B.D. Wong,
is more of an acting feat than a
memorable musical yarn —
more showmanship than show.
The work (which had its
New York premiere in 1982) requires Wong, the “Law & Or-
der: Special Victims Unit”
regular who gave an indelible
Broadway performance as the
gender-scrambling opera diva
in “M. Butterfly,” to incarnate
11 mixed-nuts characters.
The occasion is a kaleidoscopic tale about an 8-year-old
named George who becomes
possessed by the demonic spirit of a vaudeville veteran, and
if anyone from Actors’ Equity
is within earshot, one of your
union members is being cheated if he’s not earning at
least quadruple the going
rate.
The production — directed
by distinguished acting veteran Roger Rees and featuring
an onstage trio led by pianist
Dan Lipton, who also fills in as
Thumbs DuBois — puts the focus squarely on its star.
This small and not exactly
smoothly structured story
(Tom Cone wrote the book
based on his play) allows a performer to multiply before our
eyes, and Wong proves himself
exceedingly adept at theatrical
mitosis.
Concentrating at first on
George and his parents, Arthur
and Louise, a Southern family
trying to scrape by in the Depression, Wong slips in and out
of personas with the cunning
swiftness of an escape artist.
Louise’s rich brother unexpectedly dies when a casualty of the
stock market literally crashes
down on his head, and Arthur

The Wall Project

WALLED OFF: An artist’s rendering, left, shows what the Wall Project may look like when it is up. In 1989, East German guards prepare to let their countrymen enter West Berlin.
It’s a Berlin Wall memorial and a traffic hazard all in one
[Wall, from Page D1]
The Wall Project will be
made up of two parts: The
“Wall Across Wilshire” will have
as its adjunct the “Wall Along
Wilshire — Eastside Gallery
West,” which will have a somewhat longer life in front of the
5900 Wilshire Blvd. building, remaining in place from Oct. 17 to
Nov. 14.
During its short existence,
the “across” wall will bisect the
“along” wall, with one end of
the “across” wall ending at
LACMA’s outdoor installation
“Urban Light.”
The location is “highly symbolic,” said Justinian Jampol,
president and founder of the
Wende Museum. “It connects
downtown to the ocean, those
two cultural anchors to the city.
Also, going through an area
where there are lots of museums and cultural institutions,
it’s very reflective of what occurred in Berlin, because when
that line was drawn through
the city, it divided up the cultural institutions.”
Symbolism aside, the location is not random: Wayne Ratkovich, owner of the 5900 Wilshire Blvd. building, sits on the
nonprofit Wende Museum’s
board of directors.
From Oct. 23 to Nov. 7, 40
wall panels, all 11 feet tall and 3
feet wide, will be painted on the
grounds of the Page Museum
at the La Brea Tar Pits in Hancock
Park,
adjacent
to
LACMA. Thirty of those panels
will be used to construct the
Wall Across Wilshire, and the
other 10 will form the Wall
Along Wilshire.
The work of graphic designer and political illustrator
Fairey will be part of the
“across” wall, along with the
work of graffiti artists working
with ArtStorm LA and arts
students at the Otis College of
Art and Design, USC, CalArts
and USC. Twitchell and Noir

sign off on closing Wilshire.
“We do this all the time,”
said Councilman Tom LaBonge, whose district includes
the project site, mentioning a
recent NASCAR-related event
at the nearby Petersen Automotive Museum that also required the temporary closure
of Wilshire. “Wilshire is the
backbone of all the buses in the
city, but . . . having had the experience of this closure near
Fairfax for the Petersen, I knew
it could happen.”
Los Angeles German Consul General Wolfgang Drautz,
who moved to Los Angeles just
weeks ago, said that the Wall

will paint an additional 10 panels for the Wall Along Wilshire,
doing most of their work in
front of the 5900 building. The
public will have the opportunity to observe the artists at work
in both locations.
Jampol said the painting
done on the Berlin Wall circa
1989 “was not art, it was a political act. It was not about showing the finished artwork, it was
dynamic.” He said that so
many artists wanted to make
their mark on the Berlin Wall
they often began painting over
another artist’s work before the
paint was dry.

Project is the largest Berlin
Wall anniversary commemoration that he is aware of outside
of Berlin. Germany plans to donate as much as $40,000 to the
effort, which Jampol estimated
could cost $500,000.
“Look at the map — that we
are doing this here on the West
Coast, in California, is symbolizing that it’s not just a narrow,
transatlantic relationship between Washington, D.C., and
Berlin,” Drautz said. “We are
really looking forward to an
event where all American cities
can celebrate with us.”
