As his friend’s son, Max, excitedly pointed out a vendor selling vintage street lamps, Burden’s vision took shape. Now standing at the entrance of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, this artwork has become a beloved landmark. To celebrate its 10th anniversary, the museum has replaced the incandescent light bulbs with energy-efficient LEDs, generously provided by the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation.
