Project Chimney – 3 chimneys saved, 4 to go!

Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, CA

 

We are salvaging historically-significant fireplaces/chimneys in preparation for the Palisades Fire Memorial, a public art installation consisting of 7 free-standing chimneys for future community gatherings and remembrance.

 

                    

                    

                    

"This project is a bold and innovative undertaking that will preserve the only surviving physical structures from the January 2025 fires in the Pacific Palisades--the lone masonry chimneys that millions around the world came to recognize as symbols of the devastation of the fires, and the resilience of the communities who would persevere and rebuild."

 House Museum exists as a series of citywide programs that connect the public to site-specific installations. Each exhibition, whether interior, virtual, or otherwise, uses contemporary art methodologies to activate historic landmarks and to engage the communities impacted by them. House responds to challenges at the intersection of art, architecture, and historic preservation. Site by site, House is building a decentralized, meta-museum network.
