In Which I See Art and Ocean-y Things

Long Beach Museum of Art
Matisse Drawings and Vitality and Verve III Transforming the Urban Landscape.

I, of course, paid attention to the rules and didn't even sneak a photo. So I am grabbing these off the interwebs from people who totally didn't listen to the rules.

I loved the ginormous Alice in Wonderland mural and all the air grates had hands and weirdness coming out of them. One was chicken feets LOL  The wire sculptures were fantastic - there were lights angled on them so that they reflected the shadows on the walls behind.

It was really lovely seeing Matisse's sketches and I really only paid much attention to his shapes which I love to create myself.  I can see some of the shapes in those sketches too.

This show is only at the Long Beach Museum of Art until September 2, 2018, so go now. It is really nice. And if you are really lucky you will get to see many half naked sweaty old men riding many bikes around the beach front. (snort)
