The Getty Center


Heard a promo on Radio this morning from Perry Farrell regarding an exhibition on 20 years of collecting photographs through July 25th should be awesome. The New Getty is one of my favorite places in So Cal to visit. Everyone must whether you're visiting LA, or live here. A brand new Billion dollar structure that houses some of the greatest art in the world(Van Gogh, Rembrandts, etc.) with a world class botanical garden, and view of all of West LA. Totally free (I think $5 for parking without college ID) with cafe for chillin. Man, I wanna go right now!!!! Check out the link:

The Getty Center

P.S. Be sure to check out the 5-minute orientation film on your right as you walk in.:)

The links don't take up space do they? If so I'll take it down. This one looks so real in person.

I love the Getty..Although, when I went, we drove all the way to the bottom of the parking structure, and almost all the way back up before we got a space..Pain in the ass..But it was still pretty new..

We have the most frugal users on the planet. Nope, Neuwave, links to other media don't take up that much space so link away!

I remember when I was fourteen my parents dragged me to the Vancouver art museum, that was the worst day of my life. Dont get my wrong, I like art but not the normal kind that is typically displayed. I prefer more abstract art as well as grafiti art that is abstract. I really like Picasso, I also really like stuff by Humanfive(local artists, they are rad, they design the grafics for Capita Snowboards) Theres this underground skatepark in Vancouver that is covered with graffiti art, alot of the paintings in there are rad(I'll try to find some pics).

Hello ^^^-I like your avatar :) I'm a Homestar Runner fan. Strong Bad is the best, though! ;)

Though I haven't been able to get onto that site since my computer sucks and usually shuts down when I try to get on sites that use Flash (for example, I can't get on to www.imarobot.com :( ) Sucks...
