In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, a free, drive-thru art experience at the Hollywood Palladium Theater will feature works by emerging and established Latinx artists, exploring the Latinx influence on Los Angeles, a collaboration between Hyundai, Long Beach’s Museum of Latin American Art and Los Angeles-based organization Art of Elysium.<\/p>\n

“DRIVEN,” will take place Oct. 1-4, and involve a 25-minute immersive, interactive drive-thru exhibit, experienced from the comfort of a car. Drivers will tune into an FM station to hear a playlist curated for the experience by KCRW’s Raul Campos, providing the soundtrack as guests move past South American landscapes and eight art installations.<\/p>\n

“It’s a great opportunity to see something different, something inspirational during this complicated and uncertain time when we are trying to find new ways to connect with people,” said MOLAA’s chief curator Gabriela Urtiaga. “So the idea to do it in a drive-thru experience at the historic Hollywood Palladium is really fabulous.”<\/p>\n

For “DRIVEN” Urtiaga selected “very powerful works” by artists tackling diversity, inclusion, equity, equality and utopic universes in their practices.<\/p>\n
