To celebrate my birthday, le monsieur made reservations to see this exhibit at LACMA tomorrow!Renoir in the 20th Century.
Renoir in the 20th Century focuses on the last three decades of Renoir’s career,when, following his rupture with impressionism, he turned to an art that was
decorative, classical, and informed by a highly personal interpretation of the
Great Tradition.
LA has some really wonderful art museums and exhibits, and we've been trying to get out to see more of them.
What about you, any exciting weekend plans?

Happy Birthday and have a great time!
ReplyDeleteHappiest of birthdays to you Une, and enjoy the exhibition too...
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a better way to spend a birthday than a quality art show - remember that works of art usually increase in value with their age!
ReplyDeleteDo assume that a supper will follow up on Renoir!
Fond wishes for a marvelous birthday. You give us so much, thank you!

ReplyDeleteWe are likely to take in an exhibition as well -- Leonardo da Vinci's studies of the body at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Different century, different visions, of course, but still, I'll feel a wee bit connected to you as we walk from artwork to artwork.
Happy birthday to lovely You! Enjoy Your beautiful day!

ReplyDeleteNo doubt the Renoir will be amazing. I love me a good retrospective.
[IIRC he painted a lot of women with your coloring...so don't forget to be shallow by looking out for fabulous color combinations you can steal!]
