At the time, my father suggested that the Gateway to L.A. should reflect the attitude of people in the city and be a big "fuck you" sign. I drew his idea at the time and here it is.

Gateway to L.A.
About fifteen years ago, Los Angeles had a big competition to design a Gateway To L.A. that would be an iconic monument that visitors would see when they flew into LAX, along the lines of the Statue of Liberty or the St. Louis Arch. They got a lot of designs and picked a winner. I'm not sure if the funding fell through or it turned out everyone hated the winner's design except the committee that chose the winning entry. It never got built.
At the time, my father suggested that the Gateway to L.A. should reflect the attitude of people in the city and be a big "fuck you" sign. I drew his idea at the time and here it is.
