Hurry Hurry : May is halfway over
I really don't mean to be such a tool by giving free advertisement to Bank Of America, but did you know that for the entire month of May, BofA will cover your admission to museums? ..If you are a current cardholder. I do love the museums...
The following museums in San Francisco are participating, and here are some current shows that are of particular interest to me:
SFMOMA: Picasso and American Art: "examines Pablo Picasso's far-reaching influence on his American contemporaries and successors". Art in the exhibit includes works by: Stuart Davis, Willem de Kooning, Arshile Gorky, John Graham, Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Jackson Pollock, David Smith, and Max Weber. I will visit this show and then blog about it. Yes I will. That's an Arshile Gorky to your left...
Legion of Honor: I'm not sure which of these intriguing exhibits I want to highlight more. The two that I think I would make an effort to see are Masterpieces of French Jewelry (February 10, 2007 — June 10, 2007), and Marie Antionette and the Petit Trianon (November 18, 2007 — February 17, 2008). Okay, wait that Marie Antionette doesn't open until November. I guess that's one for the calendar. Anyway, here's the link to all exhibitions at the Legion of Honor. Then, when your'e done looking at art and artifacts, go grab some Samosa Soup at Burma SuperStar. YUM!
DeYoung Museum: Vivienne Westwood: 36 Years in Fashion
(March 3, 2007 — June 10, 2007). See it in May because there's a $5 surcharge for admission to this exhibit.
Asian Art Museum: Telling Tales: Illustrated Storytelling Scrolls. (April 21–October 21, 2007). Not sure if I can make it to this, but maybe I'll try...
Yerba Buena Center for The Arts: Current Exhbitions to check out
And finally, The California Academy of Sciences, where you can go pretty much any time of the year and find something neat. I'm intrigued by Extreme Life on Earth, where scientists have "studied life in some of Earth’s most “extreme” environments in order to understand the full range of life’s capabilities and limitations."
