Free after five

Free after five

Check out these exhibits that are at LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art), which is literally five blocks away from me:

German and Austrian Posters—War, Revolution, Protest: Recent Gifts to the Robert Gore Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies

The Arts and Crafts Movement in Europe and America, 1880–1920:
Design for the Modern World

Paranoia Films of the '70s

The best part is that--aside from the film exhibits--LACMA has a free after five PM policy (sponsered by Target, incidentally). I'm going to go with a boo-yah on that one. Boo-yah.

You might also check out LACMA's huge online collection while you're at the site. It's pretty keen, including a section devoted entirely to German Expressionist work under the European art section.

As it would be...because Germany is in Europe.

Anyway, all this art and I don't even have to pay for parking (because I'd walk) or for tickets (because I'd probably wake up around 4:30 anyway). God bless the art collectors that reward the cheap and lazy.

Well anyway, I've got to take a quick photo of myself as a high school student to submit it for some Brett Ratner pilot shooting starting tomorrow. Hooray!
