Last year for the Hammer Museum’s biennial “Made in L.A.,” the artist made another architectural prototype that was installed on the terrace. Visitors could enter a large-scale open-air pavilion built from carved gypsum panels that echoed both Egyptian and Modernist structures. It was a way for Ms. Halsey to think through questions of public access and practicalities of how her future South Los Angeles monument might function outside.

She has asked the dealer to contribute the proceeds from the eventual sale of her Frieze commission to a workers’ center in South Los Angeles.
