Art museum love

Gah, I'm such a hoarder. Looks like I'm starting to grow a little collection of museum maps... I like that since they're sister museums, their stuff all matches, though. Kinda justifies the obsessiveness, doesn't it?
One on the left was from ages ago, one on the right was from the BLLBC's most recent visit (which was this Tuesday, 12/11/12). Yes, San Francisco was too cold for my foolish little skirt, but it was terrific fun, and we looked hot, which is what really matters.

And the images that follow are all from the pamphlets I've also hoarded. This is why I hate moving, I have tons and tons of paper ephemera that's totally useless but that would also break my heart to part with.

 

From our visit last year, sometime between February 5, 2011 - June 12, 2011: Belgian artist Isabelle de Borchgrave's "Pulp Fashion" exhibit. Probably one of my favorite things, ever. I had to go 2x, it was that fantastic. Girls love period costumes


From our most recent visit... "Treasures from the Louvre: From Louis XIV to Marie Antoinette". T'was magnificent, everything sparkling and fantastical, like it all came out of a fairy tale...


And next time...? Nureyev!! We just can't get enough hot Russian dancers can we? When it comes time to get more excited for this, I'm going to prepare by checking this out from the library
