Pilgrimage

I used to think the Getty was really cool. Then I spent four days in New York, visiting five museums and one gallery with fellow art-pilgrim Noelle, and realized the Getty is only a little bit cool.


MoMA--Sol Lewitt wall drawings.


Christie's Auction House--mini-Moore.

We also stopped by the Guggenheim to revel in the genius of Frank LLoyd Wright, the Frick for fabulous French furniture and lots of Old Master paintings, and the Neue Gallery to visit Klimt's Adele.


And then of course, the Met--mecca for all that are art-inclined. We went twice and still didn't finish.

At least our Getty badge gained us free entrance (probably saving us well over $100) to all these places.

After spending an eventful, fun-filled four days with high-strung, neurotic people, walking through urine-laced subway tunnels, sleeping in glorified hallways and closets posing as apartments, standing in unavoidable lines and wading through thick crowds, I realize that while of course I heart New York, LA, I heart you soooo much more :)
