Is your favorite Shepard Fairey's “Peace Elephant”? The Obama "Hope" poster pioneer brings his signature style to a 70-by-106-foot portion of the library's west parking lot wall. Fairey says peace has been a recurring theme in his art since the Iraq War began.

Maybe it's the obscure blue print on the south-facing wall by Los Angeles street artist Marquis Lewis (Retna)? The Los Angeles street artist says his work was based on the Salman Rushdie quote: “Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest of place in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart."
