I missed this one from a year ago: we won Best Billboard in 2024 for 'Dictator Diaper Don Destroying Democracy':
Grand Avenue Arts & Preservation Director Beatrice Moore owns a billboard near Grand and 11th avenues. But she doesn’t use it for advertising. Back in March 2017, the billboard made national news when Moore commissioned Los Angeles artist Karen Fiorito to cover it with a controversial piece of art depicting then-President Donald Trump surrounded by mushroom clouds and dollar signs that resembled swastikas. Since then, the billboard has been used to decry Trump’s nominees to the Supreme Court and to celebrate Black History Month, among other topics. But in March, a new work by Fiorito went up on the billboard. Titled “Dictator Diaper Don Destroying Democracy,” the piece depicts Trump as three infants on a picnic blanket surrounded by things like a cake decorated with a Confederate flag, “I Love Fascism” spelled out with baby blocks and a bucket of fried chicken bearing the image of Adolf Hi**er. Fiorito and Moore intended the work to remind people of the damage Trump has wrought in the U.S. and to encourage people to vote. Moore has stated that the image will stay up through the November presidential election.
