Time Management Techniques

EJ Hill’s contribution to the exhibition Made in L.A. (2018) at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles was a performance in which—every hour the museum was open to the public, six days a week for three months—Hill stood on Altar (for victors past, present, and future) a sculpture he created to resemble the podium athletes stand on for award ceremonies. During his one day off per week, Hill made photographs while walking around Los Angeles. Drawn from that series, this image depicts a monument in the Los Angeles National Cemetery honoring the veterans of the 1898 Spanish-American War, which was designed by Roger Noble Burnham, erected in 1950, and rebuilt in 1973 after the original was destroyed in a 1971 earthquake.
