Work to Benefit UCLA Arts Center

A lithograph by Los Angeles artist Marvin Harden has been commissioned by the UCLA Friends of the Graphic Arts to benefit the Grunwald Center for Graphic Arts at UCLA.

Harden holds a master of fine arts degree from UCLA and has won awards including a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1983 and an artist’s fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1972.

Fifty copies of the three-color lithograph entitled “Teddy” are priced at $300 for members of the Friends of the Graphic Arts, $325 for members of the UCLA Art Council and $400 for the public.

Proceeds will be donated to the Grunwald Center, which houses about 30,000 prints, drawings and photographs and is one of the most important collections of graphics art in the Western United States, officials said.
