SF Museum of Modern Art- SFMOMA

This is the lobby of the modern art museum.

This is an exhibition of the industrial designer who was a leading mastermind in the idea of minimalism in industrial design. He pushed the idea that form and function should be equal and that the design of a product should not over sell the actual skill of product. He designed products for Braun and later influenced the designers of Muji and Apple (both of whom are some of my faves).

This is a thought board for brain-full spectators can sit down and relax and and reflect on their experience in the art gallery with a pencil and a piece of paper. The gallery then displays the noteworthy ones. Tres-cool.

YEAH a Duchamp. Possibly even THE most Duchampian of the Duchamp's.

A Magritte.

 Warhol, self portrait.

My first time seeing a Frida Kahlo. Wowsers.

A Matisse...lovely Matisse.

Maholy-Nagy, one of my FAVOURITES of all time.

San Francisco Beasts

On our stroll through the San Francisco Botanical Gardens we were lured off the main path and over to a corner of the botanical gardens to a very strange creature indeed. Like Alice in Wonderland we started following the tiniest most unusual of beasts to get a closer look, because we didnt quite believe what we thought we were seeing. Then there it was; the tiniest of tiny Chihuahua's wearing a crimson fur jacket and a sparkly gemstone collar. We had a big fat chuckle!! Crazy San Francisco!!

Behind the Chihuahua was a divine Dahlia Garden and a white dome with rainbow lead light lace. Lovely afternoon.

San Francisco Japanese Tea Gardens

On our way to the Japanese Tea Garden a lady wearing a crushed multicolored velvet 18th century outfit (and wearing roller skates with a feather in her hair) zipped past us and said hello. Ha ha ha.. she looked so bizarre and had a giant smile on her face and was about 60. We laughed!  Then we continued walking and found a belly dancer doing a performance in the park on in front of a crowd of people. It was such a San Francisco Sunday afternoon.

We hunted squirrels~! But them lil guys are FAST!
