Stephen Seemayer’s exciting exhibition of 62 new works inspired by Occupy L.A. — now showing at the District Gallery in downtown Los Angeles — has been extended through Sunday, June 9, 2013.

In addition to the collages, made up of reconstructed L.A. Times front pages, newspaper and magazine clippings, photographs and spray paint, the exhibit features a 5-minute movie about the occupation of City Hall in the fall of 2011. The film includes photographs and video that he and his wife, filmmaker Pamela Wilson, took over the two months of the protest, and from the last night, when the peaceful demonstrators were forcefully evicted by the LAPD.
