A Jet Martinez mural was recently completed in downtown Oakland at the rear of the
iconic I. Magnin Building. I. Magnin was a chic fashion store on Broadway and 20th housed in a fantastic green terracotta tiled Deco building. It now contains offices and still shines among the other Deco buildings that grace downtown. This
mural was arranged through Athen B Gallery and made possible through
the building owners HP Investors and Lake Merritt/Uptown Association. Did anyone else think of Diego Rivera when they first looked at this?
