Trumpocalypse Billboard
Several designs by California artist Karen Fiorito have graced a Grand Avenue billboard during the past four years, including a controversial piece called
Trumpocalypse. Her latest design will be replaced in late January by a billboard set to include the text “Black History Matters.” It’s part of a Black History Month project being organized by Gizette Knight, whose plan to install a Black Lives Matter street mural in downtown Phoenix last year did not garner City Council approval.
Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art recently received a grant from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
