Exhibition Inquisition

If, like myself, you were unwilling to pay $20 to MOCA(/Christie’s) to see Liz Taylor’s jewels, good news: The de Young has a Bulgari show this summer!

It took many attempts to get a screengrab of Girl with a Pearl Earring winking.

“Venture philanthropist” Eli Broad with some of his cultural collateral: Jeff Koons’s “Rabbit” (1986).

Conceptual Rendering of the “Veil and the Vault” by Diller Scofidio + Renfro.

Meanwhile, on the western side of the LACMA campus, more Renzo red is being planned.

Does half of LACMA really need to be demolished? Also, can we stop calling the Pavilion for Japanese Art “beloved” it’s pure kitsch. The only reason it cant be thrown out is because of legalities.

Who can spot the differences between this and the original rendering?

Freeways as borders. LA Live and the 110 freeway as seen through Google Streetview.

Whoa! Turns out I know a lot about football. Kinda.

I foresee a lot of craigslist missed connections happening at SFMOMA’s screenings of Christian Marclay’s The Clock.
