I finally got to wander around the newly renovated LACMA and it’s flashy new sister museum, BCAM, which still has that new-car smell. (Or is that formaldehyde?) Anyhow, I spent some quality time checking out the spaces and the art, though I was unable to photograph much of what I saw because, as usual, no photography was allowed inside the galleries. (Not that this matters, because far-flung correspondent San Suzie already got all the illegal flicks we needed back in February.) All of this was fine with me, because it allowed me to roam around and soak up the offerings. Herewith, a short, highly-annotated tour of some of what I saw.

An artist buddy of mine is looking for heavy-weight hot-pressed water colour paper that’s 80×90 inches or bigger. (Or an equivalent paper that will hold water colour well.) Anyone know where he can find it? Leave a comment below!
Thanks, C-Mon.
