Dr. Larka

Dr. Lakra
BA RRIO LOGAN
1660 Logan Ave
Parking lot of Miriello
Grafico (on 17th St)
Dr. Lakra portrays his art to visualize culture and the Hispanic gang culture. He lived in San Francisco tattooing undocumented workers and gang members. The skeleton is suppose to represent a Chicano, with the beard and bandanna. Like the art in around Chicano park the community has a strong mural art to show. Dr. Lakra reassembles what people call low culture into high art, challenging our sense of good taste and respectability.
