Museum Ladies

Anna, Bonnie T, Christy, and I went to go see the Richard Avedon exhibit at the Phoenix Art Museum. With stops at Honey Bear's BBQ (YUM!) and Lux (YUM YUM!).

I was really hoping to see this collection by Avedon, but guess we'll have to make a trip to Tucson to see it. I love how Christy described him, "He takes the pretense out of people." His portrait of Picasso's children was probably my favorite of the exhibit. Or maybe the one with the elephants. Or his fashion photography... It was all sickeningly amazing.

Also got a surprise treat: a quickie art tour by a docent who happened to love Donald Judd as much as I do.

Am now making plans to spend Tuesday nights at the museum and at Lux, drinking the valley's best coffee. Sigh.

Museum shoes
(Can you match the shoes with the wearers?)

oh i definitely can match the shoes - clockwise from the top:
- christy, who almost ALWAYS wears flip flops. :)
- bonnie, who i'm going to start treating like anna and just BUY her some fun shoes and FORCE her to wear them! ::wink::
- luz, who found those red treasures recently at a thrift store, no?
- anna, who loves her ballet slippers.
