See Diego Rivera's epic fresco, Pan American Unity, at the San Francisco Museum of Art -- for FREE. It measures a massive 22' x 74' and weighs 60,000 pounds. He painted it, along with assistants, in front of a live audience in 1940 on Treasure Island during the Golden Gate International Exposition. It will be here for an extended period, while they build a new performing arts center to house it at SF City College. Here's a good article on the challenges of installing the art: https://www.sfexaminer.com/entertainment/diego-riveras-epic-mural-graces-sfoma/
