ABOUT PATRICK MARTINEZ Patrick Martinez (b. 1980, Pasadena, CA) is a multidisciplinary artist known for his mixed media landscape paintings, neon sign works, cake paintings, and the Pee-Chee series. His landscapes are abstract compositions of city materials—like stucco, spray paint, neon, and ceramic tile—that reflect socio-economic conditions and cultural loss. His neon works remix street-level signage with literary and rhetorical phrases, while his cake paintings honor activists and thinkers. The Pee-Chee series addresses the risks faced by Black and Brown youth from law enforcement. Martinez earned his BFA with honors from Art Center College of Design in 2005. His work has been shown internationally, at venues such as the Whitney Museum of American Art, Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles, Brooklyn Museum, Studio Museum in Harlem, and Smithsonian museums. His pieces are in permanent collections at the Whitney Museum, the Broad, LACMA, MOCA, the Smithsonian and others. Notable exhibitions include a solo show at the Tucson Museum of Art (2021), a residency at the Rauschenberg Residency (2020), and a solo exhibition at the ICA San Francisco (2023). He is also part of the current exhibition at The Broad Museum and the focus of a solo presentation at Dallas Contemporary (2024). Martinez lives and works in Los Angeles and is represented by Charlie James Gallery.

When we went to visit, we happened to meet the college students&#39; admission time, and it took a long time to get the car into the parking lot of the campus. There are many buildings to visit, the most famous should be the statue of their bear and the backflowing waterfall. However, there is no detailed investigation this time, so it is more like a blind, and then experience the atmosphere of a famous American school. The shops on the campus also sell some surrounding goods, and you can also buy them if you need them.

The first time I played, the project was very exciting, recommending speed passes, really saving time. In addition, the service in the scenic spot is also very good, and the dining price is high. Each project has its own characteristics, Super Mary recommends taking children to play.

I went to Disneyland in California and it was really fun! It has two major parks, Disneyland and Adventure Park, and the project is super rich. The Star Wars Park is very technological, and the exciting roller coaster makes my heart beat faster. The parade performance is super exciting and full of fairy tale atmosphere. The staff is also super enthusiastic, the service is particularly intimate, and the experience is full!

Griffith Observatory

学校🏫

Griffith Observatory: The junction of the Starry Sky and the Earth This art deco building, completed in 1935, is suspended on the Hollywood Hills like a giant astronomical instrument targeting the Los Angeles Basin. Free and open setting makes it the city&#39;s most generous viewing platform. Fu Ke in the main hall is the most philosophical. The brass hammers slowly deflect the trajectory of the star map floor, silently proving the physical facts of the earth&#39;s rotation. When the Tesla coils on the basement floor were performed, artificial lightning burst in the dome, turning the scientific demonstration into a modern witchcraft show. But the true souls are on the night rooftops when city lights spread like magma beneath their feet, and the visible galaxy hangs overhead, forming a barren war between heaven and man. It is recommended to arrive an hour before sunset. First look at the sun on the west terrace as the Hollywood sign is gilded, then line up in the dusk to touch the astronomical telescope. The couples in line, the photographers on tripods and the children counting stars cast overlapping silhouettes on the metal shell of the telescopeperhaps more worth observing than the celestial body itself. Don&#39;t forget to look back at the Greek theater-style dome when you leave, and the bronze statue of Einstein is smiling in the shadow of the porch, as if you already know all about human obsession with the universe.

The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles is magnificent in scale and the architectural design is easy to visit. There are many exhibition halls in the museum, and the content of the exhibition hall is different. [Fun] It is very interesting, and the history of dinosaur development and evolution is displayed here. [Cost-effective] very high. Such a huge exhibition hall is very good value for money.
