A renowned San Diego artist who watched in September as an excavator demolished his 32-year-old mural at a Logan Heights school has sued San Diego Unified School District and a construction company over the artwork’s destruction.
The campus is undergoing construction to transform the elementary and middle school into a K-12 complex. The building with Torres’ mural was torn down Sept. 23. It also alleges that the mural could have been removed without being destroyed, using a method known as the Strappo technique, which “only requires removing the film or outermost layer of the surface composed of the paint,” according to the suit.
