Tens of thousands of people have seen the mural of NBA legend Bill Walton riding a mythical jackalope painted on the side of downtown’s Rialto Theatre.
In January, artist Ignacio Garcia painted over his 2016 “Jack and Bill” mural.
On Saturday, Feb. 10, the Rialto at 318 E. Congress St. will celebrate the official unveiling of Garcia’s new mural, “La Guitarrista,” inspired by 17th century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer’s “The Guitar Player.” Garcia will be on hand for a reception at 3 p.m. in the Rialto’s adjacent R Bar, 350 E. Congress St.
Garcia said he had been wanting to paint over “Jack and Bill” for some time.
“It didn’t fit as ‘downtown’ as I thought it should as time went by,” he said in mid-January as he was working on the new 45-foot by 45-foot mural. “To me, this was the right thing to do.”
