A Resurrection in Four Stanzas

Santa Monica’s new public art installation entitled, “A Resurrection in Four Stanzas,” by April Banks, 2021, at the Historic Belmar Park, Thursday, February 25, 2021.

The red sculpture is a homage to the shotgun house.

The exhibition is delineated in four metal sculptures at full architectural scale.

The shotgun house was a common architectural style for homes in the Belmar neighborhood and surrounding areas in the early 20th century.

Historic Belmar Park provides a space for recreation and historical reflection on a site where some of Santa Monica’s earliest African American residents lived and contributed to making Santa Monica a vibrant and unique place from 1900 to the 1950s.

Historic Belmar Park is located at 1855 Main Street.
