Artful Summer
San Francisco has Frida Kahlo, four women impressionists -Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Eva Gonzalès, Marie Bracquemond -and the Chihuly shows running simultaneously. Fabulous fabulous and more fabulous! I saw the 4 women impressionists at the Palace of the Legion of Honor - with a wonderfully knowledgeable docent -> lots of information on each artist -> an education + a delight for the eye! Mary Cassatt -Young Lady in a loge gazing to the right - pastel and gouache - private collection 1880 The Frida show also has several pieces from private collections - not usually seen in public. Frida Kahlo Me and My Parrots (Yo y mis pericos), 1941 Private Collection The Chihuly is like a good acid flashback - just screams for music to accompany it - this piece reminds me of dancing at a dead concert -
